Best P4 Intel chipset for raid 1

[Kim Culhan]

Supermicro have a pair of similar P-4 motherboards, the P4SCE and the P4SCT+.
 
The main difference appears to be the inclusion of a Marvell SATA controller on the SCT+.
 
Is the Marvell SATA controller expected to be of much value in FreeBSD -current ?
 
We have a 1-U server with the SCE and a 3ware controller using the single card slot. The 3ware is used to enable mirrored drives.
 
We would like to use the single slot for a hardware crypto accelerator and are hoping to have raid 1 on the mobo sata controller at some point to make this possible.
 
Is bootable raid 1 on one of these controllers in the future ?
