Note that Solaris only supports the Marvell SATA controller.

Is that in SATA-RAID configuration or just vanilla SATA? I coulda
sworn that NVidia nForce4 onboard SATA was supported..

At this time, the nvidia nforce s-ata controllers are supported by the
ata(7d) driver, using the hardware's p-ata compatibility mode.

That's what I thought, given that my Ultra 20 has the nforce4
chipset.. I run Linux on it, and it loads the sata_nv driver. Sad to see
that Linux is better supported on Sun hardware than Solaris :p

Even sadder: Windows is better supported.
