dmraid detects a dmraid array on /dev/sda:

# dmraid -s -c -c -c
hpt37x_ccedfbhiib:156301440:128:mirror:ok:0:1:0
/dev/sda:hpt37x:hpt37x_ccedfbhiib:mirror:ok:156301477:10
#

Therefore the dmraid device hpt37x_ccedfbhiib is detected.
If this is not valid, you can select the entry for
/dev/mapper/hpt37x_ccedfbhiib
and select "delete" in expert partitioner. Alternatively you can use the
command
"dmraid -E -r /dev/sda" to remove the dmraid metadata from the disk and restart
installation. 
The raid detection by dmraid is purely based on metadata parsing on disk 
(since linux has no access to BIOS functionality) so a mis-detection cannot 
be easily prevented. If you current controller does not support BIOS RAID 
capabilty, it seems the disk in your system was part of such a RAID sometime 
in the past in another machine.
