Look at ZFS information and lists. ZFS prefers JBOD and raw drive access, so there is plenty of information out there about which controllers work best that way.
LSI 9211-8i being one of the more popular ones.

That's going to really drag if you have to configure a RAID0 for all 48 disks ... it'd be much easier if you could directly communicate with the drives. I've set up at most five or six RAID0 devices on one host and it's not particularly enjoyable!
Well using the command line tools it is not bad at all - but my question remains unanswered - how many logical devices can your card have? I've hit my limit at 24 but I have 48 drives. So I need to find a card that can do 48 logical devices.
thanks
