BTRFS supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and RAID 10.

It is still marked as experimental in the Linux Kernel and there is no 
(complete) fsck available for it. There are moves to get it production 
ready. I use it on two laptops, on one exclusively and a BTRFS RAID-1 on 
my workstation at work without serious problems. Oracle is starting to 
deploy BTRFS productively on own servers according to Chris Mason.
