FYI -

Apple is now selling the hardware RAID card as an upgrade for the Mac Pro, meaning you can buy it separately.

As far as I'm aware, the Apple card is the only hardware RAID-5 card that supports the Mac Pro's internal drive bays. It's also bootable and has a battery backup.

$1000 is not a lot, comparatively speaking, for this kind of hardware.

If you want to use an external enclosure, there are other options like the Highpoint RocketRSAID series.
