The RAID device is configured as a large RAID0 device (it's mostly scratch uncompressed video and other temporary data) and is formatted as an EXT3 filesystem. According to bonnie++ (with a data set of 4GB), I was seeing writes around 325mb/sec and reads around 430mb/sec.
quite nice! Think I might go around and upgrade a few of our machines too then :)
thanks
