Your controller is maxed out, or you have a driver issue. Either way, you're not getting the full speed out of those drives.
The curve should be smooth and continuously sloped, yours is flat across the top - controller bottleneck. Hint: the "save" icon in HDtune gives you a screenshot of the program, instead of posting a 1920x1080 shot of your entire desktop. No, you don't need to reinstall. Take an image of your installation to another drive, short stroke, then restore the image to the new, smaller partition. More short-stroke info below.. ..a

Need an AMD user. I know Intel can do much better, but know nothing about AMD controllers. Sorry..
Edit: do you have the drivers loaded (MB, chipset/disk controller?) ..a

No, then you should be set. May just be that controller is not capable of more bandwidth.
Intel ICH9R/10R can do over 500MB/s, for example.. ..a
