If you check the archives you'll find quite a few threads about so
called H/W raid cards; put in your google search:

site:lists.debian.org RAID 2005 promise

In summary, you're better off disabling the RAID functionality on the
card (normally via jumper switches or in the BIOS) and use software RAID
which works really well in Debian using mdadm.

I've put some links here which might help:
