Yes. You'd switch to flexraid after the initial setup, and destroy the RAID-5 (xraid) volume. There's no need to wait for the volume sync to complete.
Then you can select the first two drives, and create a RAID-1 volume; and repeat that process with the second two drives.
I suggest that you read through chapter 2 in the software manual first - http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/READYNAS_OS_6_SM_EN.pdf
2 x raid 1 that would be 2 volumes/arrays of raid 1
how about raid 10?
I do have 3 raid 1 array with no issues!!
