No. write-behind depends on write-mostly, and write-mostly only really makes sense for RAID1. I much prefer to keep these two code bases separate. > another thing, could raid10 work without replica? like a raid0? Why don't you try it? Choose a layout that asks for only 1 copy of the data.

I suggest you read man pages (e.g. 'man md') to find out the details. Also the RAID0 code is much simpler and hence possibly faster.
