I think that if you put the drives on two different channels, the writes
can be in parallel, so you shouldn't notice such a slowdown... methinks
(never tried, at the moment I'm stuck with a non-hardware promise raid
"controller" which is actually software raid, and I can't find a piece
of software to check if one of the disks dies... if I knew it was
actually software, I'd used linux' own software raid, for which I can
use mdadm... damn...).
