This is a great testament to the fact that very often software RAID will seriously outperform hardware RAID because the OS guys who implemented it took the time to do it right, as compared with some controller manufacturers who seem to think it's okay to provided sub-standard performance.
Based on the bonnie++ numbers comming back from your array, I would also encourage you to evaluate software RAID, as you might see significantly better performance as a result. RAID 10 is also a good candidate as it's not so heavy on the cache and CPU as RAID 5.

=========== Single Stream ============
With a very recent update to the zfs module that improves I/O scheduling and prefetching, I get the following bonnie++ 1.03a results with a 36 drive RAID10, Solaris 10 U2 on an X4500 with 500GB Hitachi drives (zfs checksumming is off):Version 1.03 ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random-

=========== Two Streams ============
Bumping up the number of concurrent processes to 2, we get about 1.5x speed reads of RAID10 with a concurrent workload (you have to add the rates together):Version 1.03 ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random-

So that's 2500 seeks per second, 1440MB/s sequential block read, 212MB/s per character sequential read.
