AIUI, the HPT370's built-int `raid' is almost completely a *software*
implementation. It depends on OS drivers. Linux doesn't have such
drivers, AFAIK.
If you want to do raid on disks on your HPT370, you'll have to use linux'
own software raid. This implies that you can't easily dual boot to windows
and linux on raid0.
