Additional mSATA interface in i.MX6

[prabhu_r1]

Hello,

I am a HW designer. In my design, I need to provide 1 x SATA and 1 x mSATA and both shall be functional simultaneously. Since i.MX6 comes with  only one SATA interface I trying to find a solution to implement mSATA in different options. One could be by using SATA port multiplier and another option may be PCIe to mSATA. But I didn't find a solid information as a proof that which one will be better to implement in terms of Hardware and Software. 

Can some one help me by suggesting better one to implement mSATA in our design with i.MX6 in addition to the SATA interface. Also please suggest port multiplier / PCIe to S

Regards,

Prabhu

i.MX6 has 1 SATA interface. Sorry for the inconvenience.
You can use some external SATA adapter for additional SATA device.

Have a great day,

We have no ready solutions regarding to several SATA interfaces. Sorry for the inconvenience.
And we do not give preference to some exact 3rd party external adapter.

Have a great day,
