Linux RAID-1 is a mirror - all devices are identical. A reading
thread picks a device and reads from it. You get up to 1 device
worth of IOPS.
Linux RAID-10 splits the data into chunks and stripes them across
the devices with as many copies as desired (default 2). So a single
threaded reader can get up to n devices worth of IOPS.
When n is 2 and there's only 2 identical devices and the load is
multi-thread/process then you may not see much difference. Measure
it and let us know!
Cheers,
Andy
