I’m aware, but raid 1 is mirroring which is redundancy, a jbod offers no redundancy so a backup would be even more crucial to protecting from data loss. Also i never said raid is a backup.
Don’t know myself as I have no use case for that setup, but it is a well known setup since several years. If teh performance was bad it wouldn’t be recommended as an alternative as often.

Raid is not a backup…

Can’t you just format jbod with zfs or some other raid solution? I’m sure it depends on hardware but it shouldn’t be rocket science
JBOD via mergerfs and snapraid on top for parity is a possible solution.
Any performance hit for that config, I’ve never heard of that setup before.

That’s a solution i never knew existed, that’s cool as hell.
