Im using the Samsung F3 disks, which can do 140MB/s sequentially. I have tried different raids raid0 will do just as bad as raid5. I even tried one disk which performed as expected 100MB/s+ reads and writes so I'm not sure anymore what could be the problem. Maybe the controller hates samsung disks?

I've seen people with the same configuration doing 160MB/s writes and
250MB/s+ reads with raid5 so I still think something isn't right. And using
raid10 with 4 disks is a rather large waste of capacity.

do with 4x1.5tb samsung in raid5 is 60MB/s writes and 90MB/s reads, with
bbu/write-back/adaptive-read-ahead.

I was expecting at least twice of that, and I'm not sure what can I do to
get that speed. (I've read man 7 tuning with no success)


Switch to using RAID-10 rather than RAID-5.  It's normal for RAID-5 to
have worse write performance than that of a single drive.
