I have/use this single-port card with port-multipliers and single drives,
and it works very well under all kernels from the past couple of years:

   0d:00.0 SATA controller: JMicron Technology Corp. JMB360 AHCI Controller (rev 02)

There is also a 2-port version, which probably works just as well,
but I don't have one (yet -- on order).

Do NOT get any of the combo USB3/eSATA cards, because the eSATA ports on those
are really just USB3 internally.  So they work with port multipliers,
but they don't provide raw drive access.  I have one of those here as well.

Cheers
