I received few replies and did a quick testing myself.
Ronald and Rick brought to my attention that U10 has second IDE controller.
After I hooked up both drives as a master to separate connectors and pulled secondary cable out - machine hang. Probably it's the
*same* "controller" but separate interfaces.

I sonclude that ODS in 0+1 mode on U10 with IDE drives won't give me any extra redundancy.

Thnx to:
