I think this is the same I use:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/PCI-E-Express-SATA3-SATA3-0-6Gb-s-eSATA-SATA-III-Card-ASMEDIA1061-/231378681315
It has two ports, and you can choose between internal and external via 4 jumpers per port.
You also find this Asmedia chipset on a lot of Asus/Asrock mainboards that have two additional SATA ports.

I run checkarray every day (each day a different part of disk so entire disk is covered in a week or so) with no issue.
I also mirror my single SSD disk to the HDD RAID once a week.
I can run a mkfs.ext4 -c -c on a LVM partition at a later time, but so far no issues whatsoever.
