OK, so this is for AHCI. What are the options for people whose

Promise chips? Buy new hardware? Or wait until someone comes up with an

As Jens mentioned, NCQ support requires both device and hardware have
explicit NCQ support. That eliminates most of Linux's supported SATA
controllers, none of which support NCQ.
Don't have a heart attack, though, SATA is pretty fast even without NCQ.
NVIDIA nForce4 supports NCQ under Windows.. any word on whether docs may
become available to allow this to be supported under Linux? You'd think
NVIDIA would want to get that support in..
