You won't get a performance boost on a RAID array unless it has shorter read *and* write times than a single drive. As for separate folders - that is something that will be looked at for a future release of iMS.
You will find that you will get the best performance by using the new server and cfx and by not looping over the cfx but, instead, calling it once with a query.
