If I have 4 drives in the above, could I stripe two to each other and then mirror those together? Or is it strip *or* mirror?

also, not sure if this is a no brainer, but would FreeBSD support that resultant array?

The two variations your are talking about are referred to as RAID 0 + 1, or RAID 10 depending on the order you stripe and mirror. I assume this is hardware RAID so FreeBSD shouldn't even know its there. You will create a logical drive from the RAID set you create and that is what FBSD will see. That is one of the reasons I like hardware RAID vs software RAID is the OS doesn't even know about it, it is just a drive to the OS.
