Hi,
I asked this question back in march but received no answers, so here it
goes again. Is it safe to replace raid1 with raid10 where the amount of
disks is equal to the amount of far/near/offset copies? I understand it
has the downside of not being a bit-by-bit mirror of a plain filesystem.
Are there any other caveats?
Clearly you have reduced capacity, since there's a mirror AND a CRC,
otherwise I don't see any drawbacks. The performance should be much better.
