Silicon Image 3132 based PCI (E) SATA Controller - bootable?

Hi,

i read about using an PCI SATA (Raid) Controller (Chipset 3132 only is OS X ready/ drivers available) in OSX86.

http://www.siliconimage.com/products/product.aspx?id=32

 

Uses new NAD Mode which is not available in my MSI ICH8 Chipset, because no AHCI Mode in Bios.

 

I want not use RAID function, only normal, native SATA Mode.

 

It works ( i read that here somewhere) but i want to know if it is also usable to boot from ?

And if the bootable DVDs can use that HDs ?

 

Thanks

sorry.............no specs from your system, therefore absolutely confusing question - what is your intention?

Simple:

I dont have AHCI , so i dont have native SATA support with Intel 965 Chipset ICH8.

 

 

Thanks to mumford, thats waht i want to know.
