Public bug reported:
I have recently purchased an external eSATA/USB2.0 hard drive enclosure
(Startech S252U2ERR) which uses the Silicon Image sil5744 RAID SATA controller.
The enclosure can take up to two 2.5" hdds.
There are 4 modes: JBOD, BIG, RAID0 and RAID1
Upon using this on Kubuntu 11.10 only the JBOD mode works okay and both
installed disks are detected using eSATA Port Multipler.
In any of the other modes, specifically RAID1, the device never initialises
properly and the kernel retries eventually time out.
The following is repeated in the System Log after running KDE Partition Editor:

Every second the LEDs blink on the controller as the attempts to initialise the
device are retried.
Eventually the initialisation times out and the partition editor opens but does
not report the attached disk.
The exact same hardware works fine under Ubuntu 10.04, hence the "regression"
heading.
The System log reports the following:
