No, it's RAID 10 or RAID 1+0. RAID 0+1 would be 2 mirrored pairs of
5-disk RAID 0 arrays, in which case you could only lose 5 disks if
they're all from the same RAID 0 array.  With RAID 10 or RAID 1+0 (in
the case of a 10-disk n2 setup, the physical layout should be exactly
the same) then the restriction is, as stated, that no two are "mirrored"
(whether that's a separate RAID 1 mirror or just that the two are
defined by the RAID 10 layout to contain the same data is irrelevant).

The md man page would be better for information on the physical layouts,
but I don't see anything on there to support what you're saying here.
