What I usually hear recommended is /boot and or / on RAID1 and then
if you need better performance for a database or other application,
then create a /data partition or something of the sort on a separate
RAID10 array that is on different disk spindles.
Having a RAID1 root partition is fantastic because even if you totally
flub your RAID setup elsewhere you can still boot the system without
being RAID aware. This is a huge advantage over either RAID10 or
RAID0+1 in my mind.
