Correct.  USB3 is going to be non-trivial.

These two are related.  First two are AHCI sata, last 4 are powered by the
no-driver-yet C600.

The C600 series (602, 606) are the same thing, simply differentiated by an
inserted HW key.  The support for it is all wrapped up in the same package of
bits from Intel.  Problem is, what's gluing it to Illumos isn't there yet.

Sorry I don't have better news,
