It looks to me like Marvell have stopped further development on sata_mv
interface cards - does anyone know if it's the case?  I couldn't find
any SATA3 6GBps, or PCI-e 2.0 chips, so I assumed that Marvell has gone
for ahci or mvsas only for it's current/future product ranges?

That's why I chose the 88SE9123 - as they seemed to offer reasonable
performance/features etc. (albeit single lane PCI express only).

Cheers,

Tim.
