Hello,
I'm just trying to be a little proactive. I need to buy a sata card to
use with an older Intel SC450NX server. I want to use this cabinet:

Thus I need port multiplier support. I would also like to have a card
with both eSATA og interne SATA connectors. I have looked around, and
found this:

It seems to use the Marvell 88SX6042 chipset. Does this support port
multiplier? If not, do you have any recommendations for any PCI
sata-controller that supports port multiplier? It doesn't have to have
eSATA, but it needs to have internal sata, and eSATA is a plus.
Regards,
Stian

Currently supported controllers are sil3124/32 family and ahci
controllers w/ PMP support (ICH9, JMBs).
