"My understanding is that experimental support for the new RAID mode in Linux already exists." That is not true, many users have tried using the very latest bleeding edge kernel. The drive is not detected at all by Linux when it is in RAID mode. The usual fix is to disable RAID mode and just use AHCI. On most sane systems (but not Lenovo), you can do this easily by changing a single BIOS setting. Also, my understanding is that the benchmarks show no appreciable performance benefits of single-drive SSD RAID over AHCI.
