are you sure that they are not SiI 3114 ? i had similar discussion on
this list a while ago and 3114 was said to be the "good one"
and the 3112 the "bad one".

Intel's SATA controllers are not available as add-on cards. "ICH" is
short for "I/O Controller Hub", i.e. the motherboard's south bridge.

Hi all,
I have a fairly nice dual-xeon Supermicro 1U that needs some parts. It
has onboard PATA and I'd like to throw some SATA drives in and get an SATA
backplane for it (machine has hot swap bays, it's missing any sort of
backplane).
I'll need to put some kind of SATA controller in there.
Looking for some form of SATA controller with good support.
Currently running FreeBSD 6.2. Bonus points if it also works well
with NetBSD & Linux (machine triple boots). I don't need RAID.
Has there been any progress getting a driver working for Silicon Image 3124?
Or any SATA controller with N
