hello,
I am about to buy four identical drives in the hopes of setting up a RAID 10(1+0). I was told this is better than 0+1. I have read the tutorial on here and have a basic understanding, but I want a more specific answer as to why RAID 1+0 is better than 0+1. I picture 1+0 being one striped array(two drives) and the other two being mirrors e.g. the first drive mirrors the striped array and then the second drive mirrors the mirror?
And finally I'm starting this to have a Post set up for when I have more questions since the tutorial is overly used, so please keep checking this post if you like to help a virgin find his manhood in the world of RAID.
