does anyone make a
good pci sata2 hardware based raid card for Linux?

3ware does, but they're rather pricey. Keep in mind, though, that the cheaper cards are "fakeraid" cards (as discussed on the web page the previous poster mentioned) while the 3ware cards are true hardware RAID cards with dedicated co-processors for the RAID parity calculations and such.

Adaptec and LSI Logic also make some good hardware SATA RAID cards, too.
