They say a Picture paints a thousand words: > https://bsdos.info/OI/Screenshot-2021-01-22-00-12-55.png I don't think it's a matter of lacking "better SATA support". Several Sun servers had the nv_sata chip on board (we have an X2200M2 here), and Solaris and thus illumos-based systems have supported that for a long time. It must be some interaction between the installer and your system. Do test an OmniOS USB installer, just to see if it can find the disks.
