To get the rp64 I had to manually bind the ahci driver to the pcie card, adding a udev rule:
Code:root@rockpro64:~# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-marvell.rules
RUN+="/bin/bash -c 'echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ahci/bind'"
I have only tried with one drive yet, the second one is on its way
I have Delock's 4 port SATA controller which is based on Marvell 88SE9230 chip too (https://www.delock.com/produkt/89395/merkmale.html). Got it working after adding binding to udev rules like above (thanks xtract). Having 4 WD Reds running so far without problems.
88SE9230 does get really hot though (at least on this card). Its little heat sink gets too hot to touch. I'm considering a cooling fan for it.

I can confirm that this card works using the instructions mentioned above.
@nuumio:
How do you use the RAID capabilities of this card? Is it supporting HW-Raid1 and how can i setup a RAID? Is there a "bios key"?
greetings
