Requirements:

PCI Express offering internal SATA 2 connectors. minimum 2.
RAID 0
Works on OS X and Windows Server 2008 on the Mac Pro (i.e. no requirement for accessing BIOS)

Extra points for:

no need for special drivers
high performance
onboard (write) cache
support for more than 2 internal SATA 2 drives
eSata port nice but not required

not requirements:

don't care if it's not bootable


Already excluded RAIDON products... tried but don't work.
