There are no spinning drives that give 3GB/s throughput. That is the
rating for the SATA interface between the drives and your PCI(e)
bus.
There are some solid-state disks, very expensive, which can
approach 600MB/s. There are some SSDs that connect directly to
PCIe that approach 6GB/s. In either case, you would have
mentioned them, because they are very very expensive.
If you have ordinary SATA disks, the best you can expect is
about 120MB/s per disk, which various RAID schemes can add
together with more or less efficiency.
