Patching has little to none influence on RAID.
Since this is RAID 0, it offers no protection from data loss due to failure of drive.
Take backup or snapshot depending on the filesystem in question, then proceed with patching.
This has been discussed in your other topic, in which folks explained you don't need to break mirrors to patch the operating system.
Yet you insist in this topic with similar questions.
Process to patch is to download the patches and read the release notes / documentation for specified patch(es) and apply same per documentation.
