You need to saturate the controller to get significantly improved results, which means maxing out the number of SSDs. If you had the budget, then you can currently do this with an 8-channel PCIe hardware RAID controller and then 8 SSDs on top of that. Have a look at the results from the OCZ forum guys: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?60466-LSI-9260-8i If anyone's considering the LSI card be warned, it's not compatible with every motherboard.
