Dell hardware raid 0 (sas5ir) or gmirror?

[Josef Karthauser]

I'm purchasing a new server, and was wondering what anyone thought about
whether to pay extra for the SAS5IR card so I can RAID0 the two drives,
or whether to just rely on gmirror.  My worry about the former is that I
can't seem to find management tools for controlling the hardware
controller.  What if one of the drives fails?  How would I know?
