I believe this controller is listed on SuperMicro's site as the AOC-USASLP-H8iR.

 

Assuming that's correct, here's the manual: http://www.supermicro.com/manuals/other/AOC-USASLP-H8iR.pdf

 

However, it does NOT apparently support JBOD mode.  The full set of automatic and manual configuration options are described in detail in Chapter 6 ... and there is no mention of JBOD configurations or a disk pass-through mode.
