No, there are no messages regarding the SATA controller initializing BIOS during physical boot of the server that I can see. At least, not ones that take any extra time or pause for a keypress. I can never get my VMs to boot in OVMF mode. Even when installed that way they fail to boot and I...

The PCIe SATA controller I got shows up as this in lspci -nnkv: SATA controller [0106]: JMicron Technology Corp. Device [197b:0585] (prog-if 01 [AHCI 1.0]) Subsystem: JMicron Technology Corp. Device [197b:0000] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 45 I/O ports at e200...

Well, it looks like the passthrough issue is resolved with the new PCIe SATA controller I ordered. It showed up today and passthrough just worked. It takes an eternity for the VM to start now, but the passthrough works.

I'd rather not have to deal with the overhead. I just want this VM to be the only thing to be able to directly access this RAID and I plan on having it shared on my LAN for access from the rest of my machines. Since I've already ordered another PCIe SATA controller with a different chipset on it...

Is it possible to pass through individual hard drives without passing through the SATA controller? I'm only using this SATA controller because my motherboard doesn't have enough SATA ports on it for all four SSDs, my storage RAID and my optical drive. If I can pass through just the HDDs, I can...

Well, I seem to be having some issues getting any OS to boot properly with this PCIe card installed. I wiped out my PVE install and put Debian on the machine just to see how a normal OS would react to this card instead of trying to deal with it through a hypervisor. I tried it with the two WD...

I guess it's not a x8 slot. It looks like it's only a x4 slot. I am referring to PCIe4. I don't have any M.2 drives installed at all. I reinstalled PVE again and it seems to be booting a lot faster now. I had checked my cables and maybe one of the SATA cables on one of my 6TB drives might have...

I moved the PCIe SATA controller into the PCIe4 x8 slot and the PVE started to have some weird issues taking an eternity to boot with start jobs taking forever and then not having a network connection once it finally booted. I left the card installed in the x8 slot and reinstalled Proxmox. It...

Excellent. Thank you for the response. I will give that a try forthwith.

Hey guys. I have a PCIe SATA controller that I'm trying to pass through to a Debian VM on my Proxmox node. The machine is running on a Ryzen 7 3700X in an Asrock B450 Pro 4 motherboard that I have updated to the latest BIOS with 64GB of RAM. Proxmox is installed on a RAIDZ-2 consisting of four...
