Is that particular card supported in RAID mode by linux?
Most of these "ATA RAID" cards are actually software raid. (with the 
exception of the 3ware ones) They offload all the work to the 
processor. You'd be just as well to use the built-in RAID, especially 
if you are doing RAID 1. It might be worth it to use the controller if 
you are doing RAID 10 01 or 5. IIRC it would lower the traffic on your 
PCI bus.
