I’ve seen a calculation somewhere for drive speed, size and scrub frequency where optimal number of extra drives was calculated. On fast storage and with weekly scrubs one extra drive should be mostly fine.
My philosophy is any raid is not really a data contingency solution - it just saves some time when the drive fails.
