Hi,

Motherboard Software raid is really not faster than the kernel
software raid. Probably too late for you now but if you ever have a
choice again go with the software raid in the kernel and the raid
grief will go away. That is what I finally did. 

Of course this assumes you have a fast cpu.

Try  a google search and there is much discussion on this topic.

Good luck.
