I've created a zpool in raidz1 configuration with:
zpool create zbk raidz1 c3d0 c4d0 c4d1
This is not a very useful configuration. With this number of disks,
it is best to use two of them to build a mirror, and save the other
disk for something else (e.g. to build a mirrored root pool).
Mirrors perform better, are more fault tolerant, and are easier to
administer.
With five disks, raidz1 becomes useful.
