Jim,
That depends on what you want: local attached (PCI card), or contoller
managed.
If you want a PCI card RAID I think there are just two choices:
http://h18002.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/products/storage/sa5300a/
or
http://h18006.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/products/storage/retired/ra230/index.html
I've used a version of the RA230, and didn't care for the ARC-based
and floppy-based utitlity for configuration management. The SA5300
looks better because it's configuration runs under SRM and is onboard,
but I've never used one.
For external, there's both SCSI and SAN based modular array systems:

I used a few of these, but these realy need to have a good
understanding of what you want to be able to evaluate.
