In terms of Fiber Channel drives, are they even available in 2Gbps or 4Gbps models, or do the higher-speed FC fabrics rely on device aggregation to push the higher throughputs even with 1Gbps interfaces on the drives themselves?
No drive will push 2 or 4Gb/s. The bus is that fast because you put many drives on that same bus and stream from them all at once. I've had 50-100 drives all on one FC bus before. Some folks probably do many more than that.
