We use these RAID controllers on our machines and have been running the 320-1
and 320-2 with 4.10 very happily and without incident.  We have also been
running the 320-1 on 5.3 -STABLE and although we have had problems with 5.3 it
hasn't had anything to do with the RAID controller :).

>From the LSI Logic web site
(http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html) the E does look like
the PCI Express version.
