You didn't specify the type of motherboard or SATA RAID chipset, but all of those onboard RAID controllers are not true hardware raid (Host raid) and require special software drivers in the OS. You are much better off purchasing a separate hardware raid controller such as the 3Ware 8006-2LP 2 port, 3Ware 9500S-4LP 4 port, Adaptec 2410SA 4-port controllers. They do true hardware raid and work with FreeBSD.
Hope that answers your question.
Thanks,

If I have 4 drives in the above, could I stripe two to each other and then mirror those together? Or is it strip *or* mirror?
also, not sure if this is a no brainer, but would FreeBSD support that resultant array?
