Do note that cheap SATA raid controllers are in fact 'software' raid cards;
much of the load is on the cpu rather than the asic.

You can try the current version 6.0, or 5.4. Try to install without a GUI to
minimise load.
Learning FBSD may be a bit steep at first since you have no unix background.
Try reading up on the Handbook to get started:
