Will RAID mirrors built using atacontrol on standard ata controllers=20
still work? Specifically in my case on 5.3-stable:

atapci0: <Intel ICH5 UDMA100 controller> port=20
0xf000-0xf00f,0x376,0x170-0x177,0x3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 31.1 on=20
pci0
ata0: channel #0 on atapci0
ata1: channel #1 on atapci0
ad0: 117246MB <Maxtor 6Y120L0/YAR41BW0> [238216/16/63] at ata0-master=20
UDMA100
ad2: 117246MB <Maxtor 6Y120L0/YAR41BW0> [238216/16/63] at ata1-master=20
UDMA100

and:

[aurora:~]138: sudo atacontrol status 0
ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad0 ad2 status: READY

Thanks,
Ben
