It might be interesting to see if 128K or 256K stripe size gives better
sequential throughput, while still leaving the random performance ok.
Having said that, the seeks/s figure of 531 not that great - for
instance I've seen a 12 disk (15K SCSI) system report about 1400 seeks/s
in this test.
Sorry if you mentioned this already - but what OS and filesystem are you
using? (if Linux and ext3, it might be worth experimenting with xfs or jfs).
Cheers
