One of the snags of md RAID1 vs RAID6 is the lack of checksumming in the event of bad blocks. (I'm not sure what actually happens when md scrubbing finds a bad sector with raid1..?). For low performance requirements I have become paranoid and been using RAID6 vs RAID10, filesystems with sector checksums seem attractive...
RAID6 is very slow for write operations. That's why is the worst choice for maildir.
