Interesting, seeing them as low as 300$ each on ebay. Could deff be fun to play with if they would work

that's almost the same as Marvell Write Accelerate Module which I heard has poor software support

It is an LSI controller. I have the user guide if it's needed. Can't attach a .pdf to this message.

1068e? only 3gbps unless that cache is split into 4 seperate channels I'm not sure how much performance you'll get out of it compared to other lsi cards that use an external ssd(granted those tend to be ~200 without the ssd)

What drives did you attach to it? I'm not sure what benchmarks are available to napp-it I usually work in a windows enviroment where any non windows storage is network accessible.

Oh, I was more thinking to bench the SSD drives :) No other drives attached yet... I could move em to a windows-vm I guess.

I'm assuming they'll act as some form of cachecade volume do you have any controls to turn it on/off and do some read/write tests in both scenarios?

I'm a little hesitate to adding them to my pool, not sure how the best way of doing it would be.

ping @gea :)
