OK, OK,  I'll set up a web site :-))

FreeBSD does not support any true RAID controllers.
However, if you want support for the DPT PCI controllers vist
ftp://simon-shapiro.org.  you will see a patch against 2.2, a patch
against 3.0 and several complete releases, from which you can pick up
kernels and boot floppies.  Avioid the release of the 14th of November.
A new release is coming today or tomorrow.

If Microsoft Built Cars:

There would be an "Engine Pro" with bigger turbos, but it would be
slower on most existing roads.
