Each PCI-e x1 card has 1 veliciraptor on it now.
Got an x4 card wit 4 sata ports:

Not quite the > 1 gbyte/sec I was hoping for in regards to the reads
but pretty close!

Going to remove one of the drives from the x1 card and put it on the x4

Four drives on the x4 card, MAX bandwidth for every disk.

120MiB/s per each one!

Re-running dd test with all 12 disks:

1.1 gigabytes per second read!
