Does it? It seems there are two disks per ata channel, which is very bad
for performance.

I suggesting trying this:

	# apply "dd if=3D/dev/ad%1 if=3D/dev/null bs=3D1m count=3D250 &" 0 1 2 3 6

and once it completes try this:

	# dd if=3D/dev/raid3/<name> of=3D/dev/null bs=3D1m count=3D1000

and send the results here.
