I am currently running 7 raid10 data servers. I can say read speed increases but I doubt the write speed comparing to non raid setup. The main advantage of the raid is redundancy but not the performance. If you want to boost the disk performance, go for the faster drive with more than 10,000rpm spinning speed.

Have you tried RAID 10? It combines the security of RAID 1 with the speed of RAID 0. dmraid supports this RAID type.
I was wonder what experiences there are out there with using RAID-X for performance increases. I do use RAID-1 (2 disks) but am interested in attemtps to gain higher R/W performance. Do the RAID-5's etc give
noticeable performace increases?
