Sounds like a issue to pose to ATTO. R380 = 3G speed. R680 = 6G speed. Alex is right, I’d try an R680 card, or Areca 1882X card.

Alex,
So, what you’re saying is to invest another $3K in 8 SSD’s to get the performance you should (theoretically) be getting?

Robert,
What page on our website (EB400CR) quotes 500MB/s? I don’t see that indicated for the Combo RAID EB400CR product.
You also indicated you’re using a H680 card, which is 6G mini-SAS, not eSATA, are you using a fan out cable (mini-SAS to eSATA) from the host bus card?
The EB400CR is a 6G backplane interface. I’m not sure I’m understanding your questions correctly, you’re welcome to give us a call & speak to a technician. We just want to make sure that we understand your workflow in it’s entirety.

Hey Robert,
I know you placed an order on the Combo RAID, which would have arrived yesterday, let us know how it’s going?
The numbers posted on our website: https://www.proavio.com/index.php/products/desktop/eb400cr were real world numbers, RAID 5 with USB 3.0 but nothing RAID 0 with any of the I/O was posted:

Todd,
There’s a lot of good solutions out in the market that offer safe operation, a good warranty & quiet operation. Of course I’m going to be biased towards what we sell, but with what your being entrusted with doing, you don’t want to go cheap, especially with the importance of said data. I’m sure others will chime in, but ultimately be prepared at looking at something like this:
H680 (JBOD)6G PCIe to mini-SAS path-through card from ATTO about $367.00 from what I’ve seen online & a GOOD Chassis. You’ll need a low profile bracket to fit the card into the Xserve, but that should be included.
We do a 16 bay with expansion capability, it’s $2550.00 MSRP (or lower if you shop around) without a card: https://www.proavio.com/index.php/products/post-production/is316js & a number of people I know visit this particular forum have the product.
Good luck!

Todd,
I hope you’re not talking about something like this…
here’s an actual review of an under $1K 24 bay JBOD enclosure (I’ll leave the manufacturer name out of it):“I decided to do a quick test run without any drives, and without it connected to my SAS controller and it instantly let out a huge pop and smoke started pouring out of the back. Turned it off, popped open the top and turned it back on. The power supply was fine, but the third level bay started smoking severely. The three fans in the unit are REALLY loud”.
