Ah, this is different. How do you plan to attach the disks to the controller?

To the best of my knowledge, the PERC will only allow you to put disks
directly attached to its managed backplane under its control.

You may still be able to aggregate all of the disks using something like
vinum if you plan to do this, but the overall end result is going to look
very different.
