Interestingly, it appears the scsi part of that Marvell chipset has been added to the kernel blacklist in this Rockchip commit: https://github.com/rockchip-linux/kernel...3c9852396c

I wonder if that's interfering with your card's ability to register... reading over your dmesg, it looks incomplete? But it looks to initialize PCIe successfully. I do see a dump in there but to me that seems unrelated.

And I agree - if it's getting really hot then that often means a hardware issue.

Thanks for your fast reply! Interesting that they've blacklisted the Marvell chipset, there must certainly have been a reason for it. Do you suppose this makes the RAID card unusable/incompatible with the RockPro64? I hope not, since I bought the card especially for this (RockPro64) system

Regarding the temperature of the chipset, I've read posts in other threads by other users (than MisterA and myself) that had the same issue; RAID controllers that run hot when used with the Rock(Pro)64, but not in other systems. I haven't tried my RAID card in other systems, but since it's brand new and seeing the fact that MisterA (and other users) are having the same issues I'm doubtful that the card has a defect.

I also own the 'official' PCI-e to SATA II card. I am aware that this is a bit of an off-topic question, but would you recommend for or against using that card to connect my 2 hard drives using software RAID (in case the HighPoint Rocket RAID card cannot be enabled)?

Finally, I've added another dmesg output (just ran it), this time by running dmesg through sudo. Hopefully this gives some better insight? The dmesg was run just after the RockPro64 was done booting up. If you want any other logs or want me to inspect the board through other means, please let me know

Again, thanks for the reponses thus far!
