After doing some research and having issues finding the right drivers, properly installing, etc., etc. everything associated with the add-in SATA3 controller I just connected all 4 3TB drives to the remaining 4 SATA2 ports. All's running well so far. And, from what I can discern given their max transfer rates, there should be no performance penalty.
