you need to know WHICH LSI logic raid controller this system has before 
you can get a straight answer.   the Megaraid 924x/926x/927x/928x stuff 
is way different than the 920x/921x HBA stuff or the 97xx 3Ware based 
stuff.  like, COMPLETELY different. megaraid in particular is a pain to 
configure but performs quite well.

if its megaraid, they have an AWFUL 'web' style GUI in the BIOS, or a 
megacli command line which is nearly as awful.   in either one, you'd 
need to DELETE the existing raid10 logical drive, then use the command 
or gui to 'convert all unassigned drives to JBOD', which is something 
like...

megacli> cfgeachdskraid0a0

(where a0 is controller 0)
