No, not yet, but I always recommend setting up your data arrays manually so your intimately familiar with how they are constructed and the mdadm command usage is fresh in your head.
Did you know with Neil's raid10 implementation you can store 3 copies of the data so ANY two drives can fail before you start playing Russian roulette!
You can do that with RAID1+0, too. You can setup RAID1 with more than 2 drives. I have one system with an 8-way RAID1 for the OS.
That's some serious redundancy dude!
