I'd check /proc/pci to see if you see any raid controllers installed.
also run 'procinfo' to see what interrupts are being used, if there is
a raid controller that has a lot of activity chances are it's being used.

a normal 'df' may show something too, some raid drivers make the device
available in a different way, such as /dev/rd or something else other
then /dev/sd* and /dev/hd* (Though some raid controllers present the
disk as /dev/sd*). if the machine is freshly booted running 'dmesg' should
show any indications of a raid card, otherwise check /var/log for
kernel log entries.

you could also run lsmod to see what modules are loaded, on some
systems the raid driver is loaded as a module, on others it is not.

also could check /proc/scsi/scsi as well as  /proc/ide/* to see what's
there. If it's a mylex card you may have a /proc/rd as well.

there may be other ways...
