I was just looking at the ZFS RAID Level options and notices that in the GUI, several possible options are missing, causing me some confusion.
I am used to RAIDZ being pure striping, equivalent to RAID0, however in PVE, since RAIDZ1 is not listed, I was wondering if "RAIDZ" is actually RAIDZ1"?

RAIDZ is the common short version of RAIDZ1, so single parity. There is no striping with just two disks available via WebGUI, because if one of the disks fails, all data would be lost. If you insist on using RAID-0 for data, it can be configured via CLI
