Let me correct that slightly.  There are also host (OS) independent
external RAID enclosures on the market with a real embedded RAID
controller, and host connection via single or multiple lane eSATA.  If
using a single 3 Gb/s eSATA link with such an enclosure, with enough
disks, you could easily saturate a 3 Gb/s link.  Some of these may even
saturate a single 6 Gb/s link depending on drive count and quality of
the RAID controller.
