I still don't follow that. Why would the RAID level matter? IOW, are

RAID 10 needs pairs.. so we can either have no spares or 2 spares.
hm, interesting. I have recently set up a HP machine with smartarray 6i
controller, and it is able to handle 4 disks in raid10 plus 1 as spare.
with some scripting you can even use linux software raid in the same setup.
