Just curious...with these guys (http://www.bigfootnetworks.com/KillerOverview.aspx) putting linux on a PCI NIC to allow them to bypass Windows' network stack, has anyone ever considered doing "hardware" raid by using an embedded cpu running linux software RAID, with battery-backed memory?

It would theoretically allow you to remain feature-compatible by downloading new kernels to your RAID card.
