Hi,
On my x86_64 system I have a SiL311x controller that can do RAID. If I configure my 2 identical disks in a RAID1 setup, I would expect to see only 1 block device on Linux. Still I see 2 block devices.
Is this intentional, and if so, isn't that dangerous ? (i.e. writing to both disks at the same time)
Anyone with an insight, please explain :)

Not REAL RAID - requires a Windoze driver to make it work. Software RAID is your friend unless you want to spring for a 3ware card (not cheap).
