I have 8 x 3TB drives (Deskstar 5k3000) attached to a Supermicro
AOC-SAT2-MV8 and it works fine. This card uses the same Marvell
controller as the x4500.

Performance is fine if not slightly better than the WD10EADS drives
that I replaced. Of course, the pool was about 92% full with the
smaller drives ...
