I believe modern mdadm can reshape a RAID-1 into a RAID-0 then a RAID-0 into a RAID-10 and then add extra devices. https://www.berthon.eu/2017/converting-raid1-to-raid10-online/ There will be a scary time when it is RAID-0 and therefore no redundancy.
Well, to make it less scary this idea includes the --backup-file option but I do not know what this backup file will contain. Either, it is all the data — then I defdinitely do not have room for it and it would take about as much time as using R Sync to move to a new Logical Volume. Or, it is just RAID configuration data — in that case, it is much too scary for me.
