6 drive Raid 10 vs 2 drive raid 1 and 4 drive raid 10

Hey Guys,

I have been searching around to try and get an idea of what would work better.

General setup I am looking at is Hyper-v

For speed and reliability what would I be better off doing.

Shadowprotect's best practice suggests that the OS should be on its own drive and then a second set for everything else.

So hyper-v machine, would you guys recommend.

6xSAS drives in Raid 10, partition for the host OS and then 2nd partition for VM storage.

or

2xSAS drives in Raid 1 for host OS and 4xSAS drives in Raid 10 for VM storage.

I feel that having 2 partitions would not give any speed increases as in the end its reading from the same disk so would add load to the disks?

Looking forward to hearing some opinions :)
