Shouldn't imagine so... I'm using a set of 4x four-bay Chenbro
80H10321513C0 jobbies in a 4U box for a total of 16 disks.

My original post showed me lighting up an identification LED by poking
values at the backplane via the ses device, but the Areca utility seems to
do it by poking the drives themselves - which is a much better solution and
*should* be backplane-agnostic.
