If you use HP's fakeraid driver:
- you can use HP raid tools.
- your disks will be smartarray compatible, you can plug them on a real smart array they will just work.
- you are dependent on HP to release new drivers for the new OS releases on time...
- HP new policy: out of warranty, no more updates (except security?) for you...

if you use AHCI + mdraid:
- simple, standard, etc...
- not "smartarray compatible".
