Performance is not bad - we're seeing about 500mbps throughput per drive but since its on RAID 10 - we're only seeing total throughput of ~2.4GB/S given the overhead. We've heard FastPath will take that up to ~3.0GB/S that's why I was wondering if the PCI-E 3.0 will add a bit more.
We have 4 of these SANs connected together so the overall performance is fantastic for our nodes and we much prefer this over a branded off-the-shelf solution. Again this is not for everyone.
We will be adding 2 SATA SANs with 600GB 15K RPM SATA drives as backup volumes and will be using cachecade on those for redunancy. (Our SSD sans are 6TB per unit right now 250GB * 24 drives each for 24TB total) so that'll work out nicely. with overprovisioning, we have plenty of space left and the redundancy on this setup is great. All of this cost about 30K
We're using OSNexus as our software storage program FYI and would recommend them to anyone.

Were rocking 16x 256gb 830 with a Dell R720 H710P for our VZ machines. Running 150 MySQL VPS across 3 Vmware ESXI VMs and still have 0ms latency on all of them. I guess we can't ask for more.
Some benchmarks I ran: http://sudomakeinstall.com/linux-sys...ll-r720-16-bay'Ripcord'ing is the only way!

They stopped locking drives 3 server generations ago.
