Hi ...
Xilinx still claims in various documents that you could use RocketIOs for Serial ATA.
Half a year ago there was the same question - the problem seems to be with the "Out-of-Bound" (OOB) message creation and detection ...
has anyone found a solution yet?
bye, Michael
have you found an other way to use serial ata with an FPGA?
Silicon Image hat a 2port serial ata phy (Sil3012) but I have not seen a datasheet yet. It has a 150MHz DDR interface and about the same pin count as parallel ata :-(
bye, Michael
as much as I got informatiom from Xilinx then, well ML300 board has SATA connectors but they are unuseabel as SATA :( so, NO there is no OOB support and SATA with RocketIO in V2Pro.
