Umm.. no they don't. The RAID 3310's support RAIDing of up to 36 disks,
12 in the base unit and 12 in each of the 2 expansion units.

The expansion units themselves _are_ a JBOD (ie, they don't have a RAID
controller) but that's just because the RAID is done by the controller
in the master unit. From the host point of view you only talk to the
RAID controller in the master unit - what happens behind the scenes
isn't visable.
