Can anyone see any issues with what I'm trying to do?
No.
Are there any known issues with IT8212 cards (They worked as straight
disks on linux fine)?
No idea, don't have that card.
Is anyone using an array with disks on PCI interface cards?
Works. I've mixed PATA, SATA, onboard, PCI, and firewire (lack of
controllers is the mother of invention). As long as the device under the
raid works, the raid should work.
Is there an issue with mixing motherboard interfaces and PCI card based
ones?
Not that I've found.
Does anyone recommend any inexpensive (probably SATA-II) PCI interface
cards?
Not I. Large drives have have cured me of FrankenRAID setups recently,
other than to build little arrays out of USB devices for backup.
