Quoth Jim C. Nasby:

I'd suggest whichever one is a stripe of mirrors (you don't want a
mirror of 2 stripe sets).

RAID 1+0 (also incorrectly referred to as "10") is a stripe of mirrors.
RAID 0+1 is a mirror of stripes.
Jim is right; the difference is subtle yet important when one or more disks 
fail.
This site has a good explanation: http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/perf/raid/levels/
Presumably something like RAID 50 would be an improvement too.
