RAID 1 0 is the Cadillac of RAID

No performance difference

First of all, most people tell me RAID10 (1+0) is better than RAID 0+1, but only in the sense that RAID10 has better degraded performance where one of the drives have failed. No one ever claims that RAID10 is faster than RAID 0+1 in normal operation. However, I am running RAID10 so that's a moot point in my RAID paper. I'm essentially testing the "better" RAID 1 and 0 solution. Therefore I would not expect RAID 0+1 to do any better (or worse in a healthy state).

As for reliability, RAID10 is statistically better off for a multi-drive failure than RAID 0+1.
