3ware 7000-2.

It's about 140 dollars or so.  The bf2.4 disks have support right off the
install, and the kernel has supported them for many many years.

Administerable with a commandline utility, or with a web based program.

Hotswappable as well.

You can also get a 7506-4, which does 4 drives, (2 sets of raid 1, one 3
or 4 drive set of raid1, etc) as well as doing raid5.
