[PLUG] VMWare performance tuning

I have a VMWare server with several VMs on it. The system has a bit of a bottleneck at the disk IO level.  CPU performance is great, but if another VM starts hitting the disks hard, it really bogs down the other ones.  It has 4 USB HDD in a hardware RAID 5. Anyone have any suggestions on what I could do to improve the disk performance?
