Sovol is another option, decent quality out of the box and their corexy units are stupid fast.

That's not how golf works but I like where your head is at.
I think you mean aman

I'll see myself out.
What's blowing my mind about this entire thread is the "rewrite application to support RHEL9" thing I keep seeing. What the fuck applications are y'all running that are so tightly bound to the OS that they can't handle library and/or kernel updates?
Ultimately it's a matter of personal choice and risk tolerance.
The Z1 will be simpler and have larger capacity, but if you have a drive fail you'll need to quickly get it replaced or risk having to rebuild/restore if the mirror drive follows the first one to the grave.
Your Z2 setup right now can have two drives fail and still be online, and having a wider spread of power-on hours is usually a good thing in terms of failure probability.
I manage a large (14,000±) number of on-site RAID1 arrays in various environments and there is definitely a trend for drives shipped at the same time to fail at roughly the same time. It's common enough that we often intentionally swap drives out before shipping a new unit to the customer site.
On my homelab, I'm much more tolerant of risk since I have trust in my 3-2-1 backup solution and if my NAS goes down it's not going to substantially affect anything while I wait for a drive replacement.
Please do not the arch viles.
Ah, a connoisseur.
Maybe I'm dense but shouldn't the clock be:
Yep, I'm a dumb, realized after a cup of coffee. Confirmed by the reply below.
I think I'm just going to go back to bed and skip today
