I have a NT Gmax with two esata barracudas 4tb running on a stipe raid 0 (8tb) which is connected to my Mac mini via a LaCie esata thunderbolt hub. I get about 230 megabitser second on black magic on both read and write. Theoretically it could run just as fast when I get usb3 and can run the Gmax that way. But I am wondering if that will still be the case because esata is a clear through put in Sata while usb3 needs to covert the data does it not? Any experiences on the Gmax on esata versus usb3? I am guessing most will be running mirror as well but still I would be interested to know comparisons. I understand usb3 operates at 5gb while the esata hub is only 3gb but I still think esata is more efficient with data transfer.
