Hello list
I am currently amassing the hardware for a new PC build as a Christmas
present to myself, and plan to install Bullseye on it when the hardware
is all here.
My current system runs Buster and I thought it would be interesting to

I have two questions:

I don't think you can reshape a RAID 1 to a RAID 10.
mdadm can reshape RAID 1/5/6. You can move from RAID 5 to 6 or the other
way around.
*Maybe* you can even reshape from 1 to RAID 5/6.
