I don't think asynchronous I/O and the use of raw partitions are related. You can use async I/O with database files or raw partitions, if your OS is configured for it. Async I/O just means that the DBWR can have multiple writes outstanding at once; whether or not the writes go through the Unix filesystem cache doesn't matter.
