Why 0+1? 10 is more safe and I think they are as fast? Since 0+1
is mirrored stripe, when one disk breaks, no other disk can break (since
the raid will use the mirror of the breaked disk's stripe). Instead
the raid 10 is striped mirrors, which means that when a disk breaks,
its mirror disk is used, so all other mirrors can have broken disk
until the raid will be unusable.
