I think you may be confused.  Neither MD RAID (software RAID) nor LVM 
RAID are related to hybrid RAID controllers.  Software RAID is well 
supported and reliable under Linux (provided that you have a UPS and 
properly configured monitoring and shutdown!), and Red Hat's future 
storage plans (Stratis) are build on software RAID (device mapper).
