an alternative to PCIe hardware raid

has anyone of you tested hardware raid cards that are not connected via PCIe? i found a model that is connected via sata. the company is advertising with:

 

- os independent (cause raid is connected via sata and is recognized as a normal sata disk)

- raid on a chip (real hardware raid)

i like especially the DC-5220:

 

- very cheap (40-50 USD)

- only 2 hdds and only raid 1, 0, BIG, JBOD, SAFE33 und SAFE50

 

so this sound like a perfect solution for people like me, that are just looking for a hardware raid 0 for their system disk.

 

i only found a german product page, so sorry for that, but i would like to know if someone made experiances with this types of raid card.

 

 

 

/edit:

i contacted the customer support and they said that this should work with every operating system, like a real hardware raid. so maybe i will give it a try. anyways, it would be nice to know if someone already tried this.
