So, if I were to create the RAID-1 volume with atacontrol, I'm tied to
using the Promise controller?  Could I move the drives to a
Highpoint-based controller or just a plain on-board ATA interface and
still have the RAID volume accessible?  If I want this kind of
flexibility, should I move to Vinum?

Thanks again for taking the time to clear all of this up.  I really
appreciate it.
