-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I was wondering what the odds are that my setup could be supported: * Stardom/Raidon SOHOTANK ST-6600 (5 disk SATA array) (http://www.stardom.com.tw/sohotank%20st6600.htm) * STLab Silicon Image 3531 NCQ/FIS PMP PCIe adapter with one eSATA port (uses sata_sil24). (http://www.st-lab.com/assign.asp?keyid=bf9) The classical example of it not working properly is that only one disk in bay 2 is recognized; all other does not respond at all: (the following denotes a few retries of getting the enclosure to work) ======== [ 2853.136680] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen [ 2853.136689] ata1: (irq_stat 0x00b00090, PHY RDY changed) [
