Yes, in the controller setup you can create "Non-RAID Disks" (aka JBOD) or "Virtual Disks" (aka RAID volumes) and at least the latter could then be visible to bootloader (BIOS) and kernel. Disks that aren't configured as either aren't visible. In theory you could use bioctl to create and manage volumes, but the driver doesn't implement it.
