When I read "hardware-assisted software raid" I understood that it would actually improve performance, but talking to others, I understood that this is a metadata-only assistance. If that's the case, why would you want to do this? Wouldn't it be better to have the metadata on-disk instead of in the BIOS, in case you need to swap out the motherboard? In other words, the disks would be usable on any machine that supports `mdadm` if the metadata is on-disk and not managed by a [Fake]RAID controller.
