Yes the sii3112 is supported but not your specific BIOS software RAID
type. To make it work the metadata format on the disks need to be
figured out and routines to convert it into the generic format ataraid
uses written.
Anyhow the sii3112 is by far the most crappy SATA controller on the
market, so it might be difficult to get anyone interested in wasting
(more) time on this...
