Let us know how that works out. I suspect that these chips also have internal firmware, and compatibility may also depend upon the exact firmware version included.

Just ordered this one, I'll have it in a couple days:

SATA TX/RX lines match the JM20330 pinout. They've no doubt got an internal ROM in them that does everything, but at least it's internal to the chip so whoever assembles adapters can't mess it up.

Since you've upgraded a couple players + you're in Canada, any chance you've got a couple extra DRAM chips kicking around? I'll buy a couple off you if you do. Pretty confident I can do it and make it work reliably smile
