So I have an EVGA e758 which has the ich10r, and a jmicron 362 and 363. The esata port is controlled by the 362 chip, which apparently does not do raid. I have connected to it, a 4 bay external enclosure with 4 1.5tb WD green drives. I would prefer to setup a raid 5 (which i probably wont be able to due to tler), but if I cannot do that, I would want a pair of drivers in raid 1 and the other 2 drives as storage (or possibly 2 raid 1 setups). Is this possible? My setup on the ich10r is a pair of spinpoint f3 1tb's in raid 0 for my OS, a 1.5 tb for itunes storage, and a dvd burner and a blu ray burner. Just gotta figure out what to do with my 4x1.5tb's
 
You should still be able to do software RAID through the eSATA expander. Or try using an eSATA bracket plugged into the ICH10?
