RAID Question

[Alma J Wetzker]

I need to setup a system with hardware raid on the SATA channels.  I have the 
two SATA drives set up as mirrors.  I see three devices that I can identify:

/dev/hdd	cdrom
/dev/hde	drive 0?
/dev/hdg	drive 1?

I am expecting the RAID mirrors to be a separate device.  Is that wrong?  I 
setup /dev/hdg and expect to see the partitions reflected on /dev/hde, they 
are not.  The BIOS still reports a mirror.  Am I doing this wrong?  What 
should I be looking for?  Do I need to setup software RAID to copy the 
hardware RAID?  There are no /dev/s* or other /dev/h* devices that look like 
drives.

I am used to the RAID controller presenting me a single device for the entire 
array.  I can get all the hardware specifics this afternoon.  I was setting up 
several boxen and can't find my notes.

TIA
