    Doug Abrisko has patches for 4.10 which (among other things) adds 
support for the ICH5-R SATA RAID metadata. Look for 
http://www.ambrisko.com/doug/ata/ata_stable_sata_5.patch.

    A patch for RELENG_5 is at 
http://www.nulis.lt/bob/download/intel-raid-patch-releng5. This one has 
been ported from Doug's patch (with minor changes). Personally I run 
SATA 2x120GB disk stripe (RAID0) with ICH5-R thus can't tell how it 
would work in mirror mode.
