I want to run two pairs of HDs as software RAID 1 arrays, using mdadm.
Is there any point in declaring the HDs as RAID in the BIOS too ?
No.

To elaborate, declaring them RAID in the BIOS will make them look like
one drive. This would prevent mdadm from operating entirely. You would
be relying on the motherboard's firmware to handle the RAID, which is
generally not a good idea.
Unless you have a high-end RAID controller, mdadm works best.
