Well, it's just fake-raid, so surely you can always see the individual drives?
Are there actually cards out there that don't? *boggle*
Hmm.... ok, checking the Adaptec knowledgebase:
Q: Can drives be used on an Adaptec RAID controller but not be used as
part of a RAID array?
A: Hard drives attached to an Adaptec RAID controller do not have to be
configured as an array member to work properly. The RAID controller
will recognize and access single disks. Please refer to your controller
documentation for instructions on accessing drives that are not a member
of any RAID array.
