I am thinking of doing a similar thing. My motherboard (Abit IP-35 Pro) has 2
3Gbps eSATA Ports using a "JMicron JMB363" chipset.

Does anyone know if OpenSolaris will "just work" with the aforementioned eSATA 
chipset ?

I suppose I will then need to find eSATA disk enclosures that will work with
OpenSolaris to.
