You should backup your existing files and data first, and then delete the current volume and storage pool to configure the new RAID as RAID10. TOS reinstallation will not get to RAID re-create page.

Hi,
1. Reinstalling the TOS system will not affect the RAID
2. You need to set up RAID 10, only delete the original RAID (volume and storage pool), then choose to create in the volume and new set up RAID 10
Ps:Please save your data before deleting volumes and storage pools
