From the looks of it this may be a software RAID card in a hardware cards clothing. Hard to tell from the provided info at promise's web site. As a general rule, if the card has a dedicated processor and memory they are keen to tell you this. These are the tells that one has a hardware based RAID card. There is no mention of an embedded processor of XoR engine so I would say that you have a JBOD controller with a fancy driver set to provide software RAID functionality.
