I am a beginner when it comes to RAID. Is it a bad idea to use SnapRAID in combination with two RAID 0 arrays, for example?

I currently have a 14TB drive for parity and four data drives: 2×4TB and 2×3TB, all CMR, with relatively low read speeds. Would it make sense to create two RAID 0 arrays with the matching drives and add them to SnapRAID? In my mind, this setup would increase read speeds while still providing protection.
