I don't know - what are your seek times?

# diskinfo -t /dev/mirror/data
/dev/mirror/data
        512             # sectorsize
        249999999488    # mediasize in bytes (233G)
        488281249       # mediasize in sectors

Seek times:
        Full stroke:      250 iter in   1.591444 sec =    6.366 msec
        Half stroke:      250 iter in   1.468315 sec =    5.873 msec
        Quarter stroke:   500 iter in   2.828050 sec =    5.656 msec
        Short forward:    400 iter in   2.958083 sec =    7.395 msec
        Short backward:   400 iter in   2.465687 sec =    6.164 msec
        Seq outer:       2048 iter in   0.337428 sec =    0.165 msec
        Seq inner:       2048 iter in   0.384791 sec =    0.188 msec
Transfer rates:
        outside:       102400 kbytes in   1.737217 sec =    58945 kbytes/sec
        middle:        102400 kbytes in   1.811793 sec =    56519 kbytes/sec
        inside:        102400 kbytes in   2.938688 sec =    34845 kbytes/sec

drives:
