I will give it a try. My understanding is that raid10 - all layouts - are really raid0 and then raid 1 on top. If you loose two disks you loose the whole raid in 2 out of 3 cases in a 4 disk setup. If it was raid0 over a raid1 you would only lose the whole raid in one out of 3. raid1 raid0 raid0 d1 d2 d3 d4 gone d1+d2 survives d3+d4 gone d1+d3 dead gone d1+d4 dead should be. raid0 raid1 raid1 d1 d2 d3 d4 gone d1+d2 dead gone d1+d3 survives gone d1+d4 survives keld
