yes you can. if you are comparing two controllers, one that tops out at 2.85 GB/s and one that tops out around 800mb/s, would it not be suffice enough to say that the IOP on the latter is considerably faster? and i mean not by a little. A LOT. i have not even topped out this card. it is impossible at this point, it is designed for 6gb/s devices man. IN PARRALLEL. wait until ocz next round of sandforce ssd with the 6gb/s sas connections, jesus then it will be a real slobberknocker, of course then there wont be ANY question. the top of this card with 6 gb/s devices is 2.85 gbps. let that sink in bro. with a sas connection which allows parallelism. jesus lord the magnitude will be shocking. have you pondered the thought that areca is not making a sata3 controller???that the 18xx series is going to be SAS??? 6 GB/S??? are you seeing a pattern developing here? this is next gen, that is last, get over it.To the other post: your definition of max throughput is different from normal. I stand by my definition of the term. Throughput is the rate at which data can be moved. Your max throughput is roughly 1.75gb/s I believe. That number is irrelevant. That is what I was saying.
