I created 3 mirrors of 2 drives and then striped them.
I will attempt to do the benchmark again by setting the level to 10.
Are you suggesting that you would expect performance to bet better or worse with linux's raid 10 with 2 mirrors and an even number of drives?

Which RAID10 where you using exactly, RAID1+0 or the native Linux MD RAID10 format? (see "man md" or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID#Linux_MD_RAID_10 )
Because using the far (or offset) layout will quite dramatically influence the results.
