FWIW, I just put together a system with exactly that (4 320g drives in
raid 10) and have been pleased with the results. I won't have any
downtime to be able to get performance benchmarks until the current
compute/write pass finishes in a week and a half or so, but I don't
have any complaints with how it's performing for our app.

DB size is ~120gb now and add ~7gb/day during the current phase, at
which point it'll move to a light-write, high-read data warehouse
style usage pattern.
