[rescue] eSATA on SPARC - or SCSI->eSATA converters

[Peter Stokes]

Hi Jerry

The supported controller is the 375-3357 which is a LSI22320SLE, used to be
quite expensive second hand as Sun versions, not sure now as that was some
time ago. The generic card may work just fine.

believe a bracket is available for a 3.5" drive.
