Once you've found the sata modules in use, edit the /etc/modprobe.conf

alias scsi_hostadapter sata_sil24
alias scsi_hostadapter1 sata_nv
I have two identical SATA disks. Would I need to enter
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_via
to the modprobe.conf or
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_via
alias scsi_hostadapter1_sata_via
You only need the one. If it's already there then this is not the
problem you're having.
Sorry, but I want to make sure I understand correctly.
Are you saying if I already see the sata_via module with the lsmod
command I do not need the entry in the /etc/modprobe.conf?
Or did you mean I only need one single line
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_via
in /etc/modprobe.conf because I have two identical HDs?
I have currently nothing in the modprobe.conf file regarding the SATA
drives.
