Do not configure disks in RAID 6 but, leave 6 standard volumes (more space disk, more I/O available)
If they're running linux: throw out the raid controller, replace with ZFS on 2 SSDs and 4 spinning rust drives. You're not going to have more i/o than your drives and bus can support, but with ZFS's 2-level read cache (RAM and SSD) you could get close to saturating the bus. In theory.
You get hot-resizeable storage pool as a bonus. Dima
