RE: motherboard decision help

So if its software raid (when built onto the motherboard), how can the raid
array be functional without an operating system on it?  I was under the
impression that if you went into a piece of hardware's bios and set up the
array, that software was not involved?

Dual channel RAM is completely transparent, so is true hardware 
RAID but any "RAID" controller integrated on a motherboard is 
software RAID.

See the POST startup messages.

> 3)  how do you know if you got the RAID setup properly?

If it works, it's properly setup :-)
