Solve your problem with a 50% more $$ LSI SAS1068E based Intel 8 port

When this card is used in JBOD mode, is the on-disk format identical to
a standard disk that's not plugged into a RAID card?
In other words, if the card fails, is it possible to take the disks and
connect them directly to any non-RAID SATA/SAS motherboard? Or would you
need a replacement card to read the data?
(There should be a special term for proprietary JBOD formats to prevent
people from being burned by this... something like "JBOPD".)
