Hardware isn't very good I believe, and it's about 2-3 years old, but the RAID is Linux software, and though not very good the difference between reading and writing should probably be greater... (?) Would you set 512Kb readahead on both drives and RAID? I tried various configurations and none seemed to make a big difference. It seemed correct to me to set 512kb per drive and 1024kb for md0.
