Unfortunately the software-RAID systems like this do have simply very poor performance. Also if a RAID-5 volume has less than 4 drives, writes will 'stall' the array as they consume all three drives to complete.

I would consider using an E200 with the optional BBWC module instead and preferably run the server with a 4-drive RAID-10 configuration.
