i'd rather have the first options also on a single line, so

enum => [
     'single', 'mirror',
     ...
],

makes it even easier to read

isn't that the 'number of data devices per redundancy group' ?
it sounds here like its the number of groups, not the number
of disks per group

maybe check here in the else path if the draiddata/spares were set and
throw an error? since they don't make any sense
(i know the gui does not show them, but an api user might misunderstand)
