Intel MatrixRAID hasn't worked well on FreeBSD for quite some time.
See Operating System Support, note the bugs:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Rapid_Storage_Technology

Be aware there is, in RELENG_8 and newer, better support for this using
the graid(8) utility.  I have been meaning to test this for months now,
but haven't had the time.

You'd probably be better off scrapping use of the built-in Intel stuff
and going with gmirror(8).
