Hmm.

The last board I bought was about two years ago, it cost about 
CAD$150 {~ USD$90 at the time}, it has a promise RAID controller 
that supports 2 SATA drives plus 1 ATA133 drive.

I am not sure, but I think every board I have seen in the last 
year seems to have SATA RAID, for CAD$150 you can get an ASUS 
board with 2 SATA Raid controllers supporting 4 SATA drives 
on the motherboard.

Maybe I don't have access to "cheap" motherboards, if you 
can get them cheaper than CAD$150.
