Solved: PCI-Express card for sata with sii3132 chipset
Posted: Jun 4th, '21, 10:22
I inserted such card because I need an extra sata port for my DVD writer.
The card is recognized by Bios (Asus motherboard), and when Mageia 8 is running, I see in MCC - Hardware the card with the module sata-sil24. Same I get of course with lspci and lsmod commands.
But the attached DVD-writer is nowhere seen. It has power and I can insert a DVD, but no joy.
Googling seems to indicate that this module is the right one for this card, so what I am missing????
