Eight NVMe M2 SSDs in RAID on X399 Threadripper Reach 28 GB/s

So some folks are have been playing around with eight NVMe M2 SSDs in RAID on X399 Threadripper. See, NVMe RAID support wasn't supported up-to the 25th of this month. I have not seen the new driver myself but some folks have been able to create a RAID array of eight NVMe SSDs.

Der8auer was one of then, yet the video was taken down. From the looks of it he created his RAID array on an ASUS X399 motherboard as the UEFI shows everything ROG. So that is the ROG Zenith Extreme. Two ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 cards combined with eight Samsung 960 PRO/EVO SSD show IOmeter transfer speeds in a excess of .... 28375.84 MB/s. That's the funky thing about Threadripper RAID, the platform has so many PCIe Express lanes that is actually is capable of pushing such numbers.

Daumn ! AMD team, get me sum of that please!

Dual channel vs quad channel, but my DDR4 3000 in my ryzen does around 44 gb/s. The difference in 2133 vs 3000 is quite huge for bandwith. I think my ram at 2133 was around 25GB before I got it to run at 3000.

My 3930k did around 45Gb quad channel with 4x4GB 1866 DDR3. It pushed 51GB @ 2000

Right on. The numbers do not seem to satiate my appetite for wanting an upgrade at this time it would seem.

I surely am done with paying Intel prices unless I win the lottery and I want more from AMD as it sits right now.
