Kevin, we tried out a Supermicro server which had ICH7R motherboard and =
RAID was recognized fine. FreeBSD recognized all the drives as stand =
alone plus the "ar0" onboard controller.

We're able to monitor it using atacontrol status ar0:

 atacontrol status ar0
ar0: ATA RAID1 status: READY
 subdisks:
   0 ad4  ONLINE
   1 ad6  ONLINE

Controller info:

atapci0: <Intel ICH7 UDMA100 controller> port =
0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0x30a0-0x30af at device 31.1 on pci0
atapci1: <Intel ICH7 SATA300 controller> port =
0x30e8-0x30ef,0x30dc-0x30df,0x30e0-0x30e7,0x30d8-0x30db,0x30b0-0x30bf =
mem 0xe0000400-0xe00007ff irq 19 at device 31.2 on pci0

Thx,
