    hi

    is this script still required? because it says on my machine it is enabled but nothing has changed.

    i can execute it again and again and every time I see the same. it feels like it's not possible to enable the device?

    do someone has a hint to this problem?

     

    thanks in advance

     

    Device: HighPoint Rocket 640L

     

    regards

    It's hard to help you without more information.  How many drives are attached to the 640L?  They just don't appear in the device list?

    Perhaps give us output of lspci and dmesg

    Script to enable SATA Controllers without kernel modification

    The attached script will enable a number of AHCI-based SATA controllers without having to recompile the kernel.

     

    The following PCI IDs are supported:

    # 1b4b0640 : Marvell 88SE9128 on HPT RocketRAID 640

    # 1b4b9120 : Marvell 88SE9128 found on Rocket 620A (possibly others)

    # 1b4b9123 : Marvell 88SE9128 found on motherboards and HBAs

    # 1b4b9125 : Marvell 88SE9125 found on HPT Rocket 62X

    # 1b4b9172 : Marvell 88SE9172 found on motherboards

    # 1b4b917a : Marvell 88SE9172 found on motherboards

    # 1b4b9192 : Marvell 88SE9172 found on motherboards

    # 1b4b91a3 : Marvell 88SE9128 found on motherboards

    # 11030620 : HPT RocketRAID 620

    # 11030622 : HPT RocketRAID 622

    # 11030640 : Marvell 88SE9128 on HPT RocketRAID 640

    # 11030641 : HPT RocketRAID 640L

    # 11030645 : HPT RocketRAID 644L

    # 1b210612 : ASMedia ASM1061 (Syba SY-PEX40039)

     

    If you come across an AHCI adapter that is not listed, send me a PM and I'll add it to the script.

     

    To use this, store it on your flash drive (I put it in /boot/config) and add it to your go script before emhttp is started.  Then REBOOT.

     

    Sample /boot/config/go script:

      

    /boot/config/enable_ahci.sh

# Start the Management Utility
/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
    For versions 6.8.0 and later, you will need to add this instead:
      
    bash /boot/config/enable_ahci.sh

     

    This script will work on any recent version of unRAID (4.7 and later) and possibly older versions (untested)

    Hi,

    I have purchased the Plus licence, and I am not sure where to post for support for UNRAID on the sata controller card.

     

    Does UNRAID 5 support MSI Sata card based on Marvell SE9128 chipset ?

     

    Pardon me if i post this in the wrong place.

    Appreciate if someone has the same and tested it before.

     

    Yes, it is supported under v5.

    M1015 with spin down and temps would be my request.  I don't want to go to the betas but want to use my M1015 on my Virtualized unRAID system. Maybe that is already available?  I'm search challenged. ;D

     

    Did you update the md driver with the raid strip bug fix?

     

    I'm actually working on both of these right now!

    If anyone wishes to use a Marvell-based (9125/9128) HBA such as the HighPoint Rocket 620 or 622 with unRAID 4.7, I have made available a patched kernel that enables it.

     

    http://blueskyhorizon.com/unraid/kernel/v4.7/2.6.32.9/

     

    Choose the amd or intel directory, whichever is appropriate for your platform.  The difference is just optimizations, either will work on any x86 platform.

     

    You will need the updated bzroot, too.  Without it, the modules from the stock kernel may not load or function properly.

     

    I also enabled cpu frequency management (PowerNow/SpeedStep) in this kernel.  You'll have to modprobe the appropriate module in your go script to enable this.  The one other bzroot modification is the inclusion of the 'file' command.

     

    Replace the files (or rename the originals) on your flash drive with these and boot.  They are smaller than the stock files due to the use of lzma compression versus gzip (completely transparent to you the user other than possibly noticing longer decompression time for the bzroot.)

     

    I have been using a Rocket 620 card in my production 4.7 server for over a week now with no issues.

     

    I am looking to possibly backport other drivers to the unRAID 4.7 kernel version, let me know if you have any requests.

     

    UPDATE 4/6/2012:  I have updated the kernel + bzroot with:

    * Support for RocketRAID 640 HBA

    * unRAID 4.7 parity rebuild bug fix

     

    UPDATE 4/25/2012:

    * Support for RocketRAID 620/622 HBA

    * Support for ASMedia ASM1016 based cards such as Syba SY-PEX40039
