Yes, I will run them in RAID. My plan now is to buy 2 of some CF card and try things out in RAID-0 and RAID-1. If that works out ok, I will expand to more cards and try out RAID-0,1, and 10. My final goal is to hopefully get a 8-GB RAID-10 setup with ~120MB/s reads, ~60MB/s writes, and <2ms access time. Since I don't want to end up with 8 flash cards that won't work well, I want to move slowly.
I am still looking for a lead on PCIe PATA cards with more than 1 port.
