I am looking for a hot-plug capable SATA card with 4 or 8 ports with PCIe interface.

iiuc, SATA spec specifies hot-plug, ie: all SATA cards s/b hot-plug capable.

Yes. But not all of them are supported by the kernel out of the box. My first trial was a RocketRaid 2680SGL with 8 ports, that happened to use the Marvell 88se6485 chip. Unfortunately, this chip is not supported by the kernel. Bad luck. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
