Just for your notice: my vendor told me, if I change the SATA controller, I will loose every support from HP, which we paid for. So I looked at the newest Kernel 2.6.15 . You were right, that the marvel driver was marked highly experimental, but it is working (as far as I can see). So I hope, that it will be stable as soon as possible.
