Intel "RAID" is software RAID. There isn't any hardware RAID assist...
So ICH5 looks pretty much just like any other PATA host controller.

Oh? My understanding (which I admit is very high-level) is that Intel's ICH5 southbridge supports SATA; but to get SATA+RAID requires the ICH5R southbridge. If not, what are the practical differences (if any) between the ICH5 and ICH5R?

TIA.
