Promise and HighpointTech provide absolutely no hardware RAID functions. These chips provide only an additional plain IDE controller and a BIOS-visible boot point. Absolutely all RAID functions are performed by the CPU and the CPU alone, therefore calling it 'hardware assisted RAID' is even less correct than calling it 'bootable software RAID'. - Forge
