With controllers like the DPT, with similar RAID HBAs, and with SCSI-SCSI
RAID controllers, the RAID array just appears as one SCSI drive.
Additionally, the DPT drivers are in the Linux source tree (eata_dma.c).
I use them almost in our internal servers and workstations and have had
excellent results with them.
