Can someone please help point me in the right direction? I want to create a RAID10 but can't find a guide on how to with UnRaid.

Unraid does not support the traditional RAID levels on its main array (hence the name).

You can have a raid10 pool though.

@JorgeB Can you share a link on how can I create a RAID10?

The Unraid parity array does not do traditional RAID. (Why do you want to do this?)

 

You can create a btrfs raid10 pool separate from the Unraid parity array.

 

Start reading here:

Why RAID10? For performance of course. I don’t have extra SSD. I only need a little more performance. Thanks for the link but a lot of stuff on the link are dead links.

Once you have created a pool with at least 4 disks (btrfs), you can convert to raid10 using balance option under that pool's disk settings (click on first disk in pool from Unraid GUI > MAIN).

@tjb_altf4 This is exactly the straight forward simple answer I was looking for to my question. Thank you!!
