Hi,
I've got a SiI 3512 SATALink PCI Controller card plugged into my
PC running FreeBSD6.2 Release Generic kernel. On bootup dmesg
shows
uhub2: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered
atapci0: <SiI 3512 SATA150 controller> port
0xbc00-0xbc07,0xb800-0xb803,0xb400-0xb407,0xb000-0xb003,0xbe00-0xbe0f

Looks like I'm going to be answering my own post
Just tried the sata drive plugged direct into one of the two internal
ports the PCI card exposes (as opposed to one of the two it exposes
outside the case) and the drive detects/works fine.
I've attached a eSATA breakout cable to this internal connector
on the PCI card and the drive now also detects and works from
within the external eSATA/USB2 enclosure.
Probably have to jumper the PCI card to get the external ports working
rather than internal and I didn't notice.
Anyhow, problem solved, typically straight after spending a few hours
getting no where, posting a help message and then realising
Thought I'd post the solution just in case anyone else has a similar
issue.
Cheers,
Gary
