nVidia RAID + FreeBSD 6.0

I am looking at getting a motherboard based on nForce 3 or 4, and I am 
wondering if the RAID will be usable?

I don't mind if I have to use the BIOS to setup/rebuild the array, but I don't 
want to buy a system I can't use the RIAD for at all.

I note from ata-raid.c that there is a meta-data read routine, but no write 
one - I think this means I can use it after it's been defined, but not 
rebuilt or create an array in the first place.

Any clarification welcome.
