I remember going from a 2 VR R0 setup to a 3 VR setup and I specifically remember all of my games showing about a 1/3 decrease in load times. Don't know what you're doin' wrong, but R0 lives up to it's benches when it comes to large file reads and writes.
I think what may be happening is that a single X25 has more than enough IOPS for the programs that One_Hertz is using. Whereas your Titan and Raptors are not capable of completely satisfying the programs you were using, thus when you added a drive it improved because your IOPS improved slightly. I do not believe that IOPS improve as well as Throughput on RAID0 configs though. Well, that's my theory at least.

X25- capable of more than enough IOPS by itself
Other MLCs - capable, but can't provide enough IOPS on its own.
