Hi Steve,

there should be basic support in the ATA-driver. (For the 372 there is.)

However, it does not support initial synchronization of two disks and
the handling in case of an error is very limited.
You either have to start using an already existing array or resync using
some BIOS tool. Later, the driver does not care whether the content of
the RAID is identical or not.
