Hi!
I'm planning to add a SATA PCI card to a system which as no SATA support on
motherboard.
Does debian support any of these cards or I have to take care with the model I
purchase?
Thank you!
Get one based on the Sil 3124-2 for Sata II, it's not supported by older
kernels and the driver hasn't been backported to 2.4 yet but it's an
open documented design an it's good to buy from manufacturers that help OS.
You may be unable to find one that isn't PCI-X, but don't worry, I run
one in a standard pci slot, also it supports FIS-based switching so you
can expand it with port multipliers to control 20 drives.
