RockPro64 as PATA/SATA bridge? - Count Omega - 12-07-2019

Hi all,

I´ve been wondering about some time now if it is possible to build a PATA device to SATA jack bridge via the RockPro64. I know this would run at very slow speeds and there are already adapters. How can the GPIO pins be utilized? I want to do this to learn more about how to work with single board computers.

Best regards

Count Omega

Does the RockPro64 have a SATA controller chip?
