what is the speed of a 6 member raid 10?

I have a DL380 g4. It has 6 u320 10k hard drives which are working other using RAID 10. Does anyone know the read and write speed of that setup? I wanted to know if its slower or faster than a single Intel x25e slc SSD.

It will be slower. Especially for reads.
Also the size of this disk is a (small) factor.
300GB U320 disks will be a bit faster the 32GB U320 disk. I've compared a similar raid setup with a normal desktop SSD and the SSD wins.
