Raidzone offers RAID over IDE with hotswap, I don't know if they are above
your price point or not. From my research you could use their system with
any IDE drive, but they won't sell you a setup without drives. Go figure.
Seems there is some issue about their linux drivers as well, they are not
open source but rather a binary you have to link into the kernel.
