The slow measured performance won't be because there are SATA drives installed on the Sonnet 4x4 card, the Sonnet M.2 slots are all M-key so will only accept PCIe M.2 cards.
Would be interesting to know exactly what M.2 cards they are.
And Steven I was not "correcting" you. I thought your point that the Studio has great internal storage was important, I was just pointing out the performance number for the Mac Pro looked slow and some other rambling.
BTW Dave are you sure you see 3.5 GB/s for a single M.2 drive on that 4x4 card, that number seems a bit high. What Samsung M.2 drives were they? Standard Blackmagic test, not some other measurement?
