I personally wouldn’t use raidz1 because it seems too risky to me. I’d have higher redundancy.
Some links

The last link is talking about actual raid and not zfs. But it has a 50/50 chance with a URE rate of 10^14 to lose the array. Raidz1 maybe won’t have that catastrophic of a failure, but you’d still be rolling the dice on some corruption.
