More info from the same guide, page 59: "The command also warns you about creating a mirrored or RAID-Z pool using devices of different sizes. While this configuration is allowed, mismatched levels of redundancy result in unused space on the larger device, and requires the -f option to override the warning."
Given the above, I am guessing that my options are actually different than I initially thought. Option 1: One four-way RAID-Z2 configuration. This is no longer possible because the drives are of a different size and you can not create a RAIDZ2 or even a RAIDZ configuration with only 2 drives. Option 2: Two two-way mirrors using dynamic striping. Still possible. Another option would be: Option 3: One 4 disk stripe, with 2 User Copies running. I guess the downside of this is you don't really know where the copies end up (at least I don't think you do).
