The code in 2.5 is way behind 2.4 and basically doesn't work. It also needs no core changes affecting anything outside of I2O so its a driver item not a core feature by Oct 31 > o Serial ATA support This should be in 2.4 soon. It will be essential by the time 2.6 is out. I don't know what Martin's plans are for it, but again its pure driver code so not a core issue
