30 Hmmm, even the data on HP's website says H222 uses LSI SAS2x08 chipset
31 and mpt2sas driver. I think maybe those Marvell entries are
32 SATA/eSATA ports on your motherboard. Or you don't have the same H222
33 I am seeing online when I search. :)

35 BTW that Marvell chipset should work with the ordinary kernel AHCI driver.
