Hi,

a simple question about the module sata_inic162x: Is there a chance that the 
driver will reach a stable state?

A card with such a controller was used mainly for video recording - and, yes, 
there were errors ... After a short test it seemed that copying big files or 
many small files resulted in corrupted copies; only writing infrequently small 
files was okay. This applies to both channels / ports.

The card is an equip 111817 (S/N: 11072600052): 1 internal + 1 external port
Initio INIC-1622TA2
RAID-BIOS: version 1.11
lspci: 1101:1622

If you want additional information or tests, let me know.
(On the other hand: Mark it as broken - there are inexpensive alternatives 
...)

Matthias
