And logic would then add, in my mind,

"OK, for the real performance, I use a real RAID controller
and for cheap efficiency I use the simple RAID that the
motherboard has onboard, which is precisely the thing that
grub has the most trouble with [this avoids the >2TB issue
and goes right to the software raid issue]"

Not sure I understand why this would be the case. It would seem that
if /boot is not on the RAID array you would be vulnerable to a single
point of failure (i.e. the drive containing /boot).
