% Bummer. It's a raid-10. A raid-1 would have been easier.

This tripped me. I presumed that the reason for -10, not least because
he also said "these 4 drives", was because the array space is bigger than
just one hard drive size, ie 6T on 4ea 3T drives. How would RAID-1 work
for that storage? And why would it be easier than RAID-10?
Just that raid-1 would have been a simple case of two drives, each a
backup of the other. Keep one safe, put the other in the new system.
With raid-10, it's much more complicated - you can't just do that :-(
