This is how I have a Debian server set up.
The system is on 6 SSD's. Each ssd has a small partition and a big 
partition. All the small partitions are set up in a 6 way RAID1 as ext2 
for /boot, and the big partitions are in a RAID10,n2. This RAID10 is 
then partitioned with GPT to provide / /home /opt.

Can't comment on the Centos part, but the method is sound.
