Hi
I have an ASUS P9X79 mainboard which has the Intel x79 chipset with a
built-in RAID controller.
It is detected as 8086:2826 - "lspci" names it correctly.
Getting a Windows drier out of Intel seems a little tricky - the default
one Intel gives you does not work, ditto the default one from Asus -
they both have 2822 & 282A, but not 2826.

As of "linux-3.15", I also see it is not mentioned in the
"drivers/ata/ahci.c" file.
When I boot Linux it never seems the RAID volume, but still tells me I
have three separate hard drives.
I tried a few versions of Ubuntu, including the latest and a few
versions of the Clonezilla disk duplicator.
According to that Intel thread just adding "2826" into the supported
list works for Windows - so sounds like it would also for Linux.
I will try it when I have some spare time.
