I don't understand how SATA 3 has limited bandwidth of <600mb/sec when if you raid 0 a Force GT you can achieve read and write over 1GB/sec. Surely the best option is to make drives that are designed with RAID 0 in mind and maybe have two drives stuck together but feed into two SATA 3 ports.
Because when you do RAID it is operating over 2 channels, one to each drive, the limit then becomes how much data the RAID chip and the CPU it uses (host or dedicated on high end RAID cards) can munch through.Quote:
