While this isn't an exact test of the 960 Evo pcie 3 x4 SSD, it's certainly an indication of potential performance with RAID 0 outperforming a single drive.
I'm still not clear yet though on other choke points for I/O such as the overall bus limitations and CPU capacity, RAM, and the speed that the variety of audio software programs in complex situations that real time mixing throws up in terms of performance needs and actual real world outcomes.
Still, I have a strong suspicion that combining Thunderbolt throughput (to a Thunderbolt Audio Interface) with fast M 2 PCIe RAID arrays, and overclocked CPU and RAM on the Z170 Extreme 7+ is going to outperform most other PC based approaches at this point in time - Specifically for what I'm doing with mixing multiple audio channels via DAWs and all the processing associated with audio plugins (compressors, EQ, console emulations, amp simulations etc etc). It's just taking time to work this out, so any perspectives on this would be most welcome! :)
