I'm trying to get a Addronics 5-Port HPM-XU (USB/ESATA) port multiplier to work on Fedora 16, and it will see only one disk on the up-to-five SATA disk device while in non-RAID mode. Since my crashbox is a notebook without SATA, I tried to get USB to work first. The thread on that is at: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&w=2&r=1&s=addronics&q=b (note the misspelling of addonics). My interpretation of what was going on there is that the second disk is assigned a SCSI LUN of 1, but that's not handled properly. Now I'm trying to get it to work via ESATA, and I'm having a similar experience (before I got errors, but now nothing). I'm assuming a similar thing is going on here, except that my (weak) reading of the source has it not sending LUN's at all. So the second disk isn't seen at all. What information do you need to help me out?
Well, there's not really such a thing as LUNs with SATA - for it to show up as multiple drives it would have be identified as a port multiplier instead of a single drive. What shows up in dmesg when the device is connected?
