Hello,

I apologize for the late answer.

In the below document, you can see how to boot a Linux image from SATA drive.

Booting Linux from SATA on i.MX6Q SABRE AI. 

For Android can be similar, the difference can that you need to save your u-boot image in your SD card or your e-mmc and the remaining images can be saved in your SSD disk.

Hope this can help you.

Best Regards,

Diego.
