said, you can still run Proxmox on Software RAID, but it's not supported. You don't 
need a $300 RAID card, I bought a complete >>server recently for $200 that had 
a built-in LSI SAS1064E controller
I'm begin to test raid management at lvm level (available since last lvm 
releases), maybe it could be easy to extend the proxmox installer.
I made some tests months ago, and I was socked to see that when a disk in LVM raid-1 broke, LVM provided no warning (as opposed to mdadm, that sends a message and logs to syslog).

Maybe it was bad configuration on my part, but it made us continue to use mdadm for softRAID and never look back.

BTW, we have mdadm deployed for production purposes in a pair of clusters with success. I think that with the level of expertise required to manage mdadm softRAID, relaying on the debian installer is good enough.

Cheers
