While both RAID 0+1 and RAID 10 have good performance

Good RAID 10 solutions generally are HW based RAID.
Though I have used Veritas in the past to do a RAID 10.
Not sure exactly how to perform a RAID 10 in software
with Linux. A single drive failure in 0+1 invalidates
the entire column. With RAID 10, there's the possibility
of tolerating multiple drive failures.
