(one can re-flash megaraid with HBA BIOS and vise versa, but that is a hassle). Also, RocketRaid doesn't sound like HBA, more like RAID, and although you can "export" a single hard drive in RAID BIOS, you can not expect other kind of devices except hard drives to be fully "exported" and appear on the bus as they would in case when they are attached to HBA.
