It's the megaraid_sas driver but it's not shown on the linux-ata.org
site, so that doesn't bode too well!
3Ware 9550SX,
http://linux-ata.org/driver-status.html#tware
apparently you need to ask at the driver maker's site if they support
it.
Aha, I shall do so.
Just as a quick heads up, with the 3ware cards, you have to have JBOD
support on, and a hotswap compliant enclosure for this. If you are using
any type of RAID (I use RAID 5 on the three I have) it shows as one,
maybe two drives (sda/b) in Linux though I have between 4-12 drives in
the system. I have hot swapped failed drives before, but if you are
using a JBOD setup, I am not sure how that works as seen from Linux,
though the card handles all of that internally. The biggest thing to
watch for in the logs with 3ware is are kernel logs and 3dm2 logs for
the card if you have the support software up.
according to the 'Driver / feature matrix'
http://linux-ata.org/driver-status.html#matrix
driver=sata_mv
feature=Device Hotplug
feature state=no
Well spotted, I saw this bit of the same page...
http://linux-ata.org/driver-status.html#marvell
... and it says:
Driver name: sata_mv
Summary: Similar to ServerWorks "frodo": per-device queues, full SATA
control including hotplug.
So I'm a little bit puzzled. Unless it means hotplugging the card
itself?!?
Anyway, thanks for the pointers.

Seann
