How to organize two disk arrays on two raid1 + raid0 disks? And how will it affect work?

Question

linux

Hello, there is a home NAS, under win server 2008 without raid, two disks + boot. Decided to put it all in order and arose such a question. Is it possible to organize using zfs (while I plan to use it, I’ll add RAM, ecc) or something else with built-in deduplication (~ 60% of files (in size) are made based on the same templates) to organize on one disk as a mirror array for valuable information ( there is a backup, I want uninterrupted information, a maximum of 30GB of information) plus everything else for any garbage that is either pumped from torrents or not really needed at all, in raid0. Is such a disk marking something else? It seems to be a simple question, but I can’t find an answer and the practice of such solutions.

It's not entirely clear what zfs has to do with it

Is it possible using zfs (while I plan to use it, I will add RAM, ecc is) or something else with built-in deduplication

If we consider Linux, then it is possible using zfs - however, not everything is good with stability there, and deduplication is online, which means that you will need a powerful processor and a bunch of RAM, and all this will slow down during recording, and deduplication is not the most effective.
If deduplication is needed and inexpensive, then it is better to look towards Windows starting with server 2012.
There it is very effective, and offline, and the stability of NTFS is beyond praise.

How to organize two disk arrays on two raid1 + raid0 disks? and how it will affect the work

It's not entirely clear how you want to organize two arrays, each of which assumes at least two disks, on two disks ???
You need at least four disks to make two raid1 + raid0 arrays.
Well, it's not entirely clear why you need raid0?
Yes, and raid1 raises doubts - is uninterrupted operation really important on a home NAS?

Answer 2

Organize something like this:
* windows 2016 server core (enable deduplication)
1. 64 gigabyte ssd bootable
2. 2 disks in 1 raid - by the way, what kind of raid controller? if it is built into the mother, then use software raid
3. 1 large disk, for all sorts of rubbish like TV shows, music, etc.
But 0 raid on the file washer is clearly not needed, what kind of gigabit network do you have? What controllers? Actually, that's all.
