It works! I got a Highpoint Rocketraid 2304 card to work with a Dell Precision 670 with iDeneb 1.1 (Leopard 1.54). As you can see, I have a 5 drive raid5. I used a very reasonably priced 5 drive RAID case with a port multiplier:

If you read the customer reviews, people complain about the fact that it did not work with their RAID cards. It definately works with the Rocketraid 2304. For a couple hundred bucks, I could not find a better deal. Best of all, there is one eSATA cable going from the RAID card and the external case. The case has a port multiplexor so you don't have to connect 5 cables to each drive.

 

I also tried a Rocketraid 2220 on a Precision 650. That did not work. Other posts in the forum also elude to the 22XX series cards do not work.
