Exactly. NonRAID 'smells' also to us more like passthrough. The firs strange things came from the fact that SATA/SSD disk are passed in a way that seems 'fully transparent' (eg, linux see even the disk S/N), while SAS disk are passed more like an RAID0 disk, with a different S/N. > Spinners are slow, this is news? ;-) > That said, how slow is slow?
