Detail
Type: Disk Controller
Manufacturer: Adaptec
Model: ASH-1233
Level: (What's this?) Reported to Work (Solaris 10, Solaris Developer Express Only)
Note: All OpenSolaris entries are 'Reported to Work'
Runs on Solaris Versions: Solaris 10 03/05 to Solaris 10 05/08 (including Solaris Express, Developer Edition 01/08)
OpenSolaris 2008.05
Technology Type: IDE/ATAPI
Card Type: PCI
Chipset: Silicon Image 0680
Board Revision Level: A395-00C
Driver Name: pci-ide
General Notes: Configuration for Solaris 10 01/06 or later:

(a) Execute: 'eeprom pci-ide=pci1095,680'
(b) Execute: 'touch /reconfigure'
(c) Reboot

Configuration for Solaris 10 03/05:

The standard driver supplied with Solaris 10 03/05 GA detects this controller automatically once a) the following is added to /boot/solaris/devicedb/master:

pci1095,680 pci-ide msd pci ata.bef "Silicon Image 680 PATA Controller"

and b) touch /reconfigure and reboot, then hit Escape in Configuration Assistant to detect and register the new hardware.

Additional Notes:

Multiple cards seem to work fine (I tested with two cards in the same machine).

Volume Manager (DiskSuite) in Solaris 10 works just fine with this controller (tested using RAID1 and soft partitions).

I have successfully used this card with Solaris 10 GA, but I have been unable to successfuly configure this Controller card for sol 10 1/06. I have also tried eeprom pci-ide=pci1095,680 as others have done with Nevada b27, but still no luck.
