i got answer from sharkoon:

so apparently nothing changed at all

hello,

asked already from sharkoon: no answer yet.
but the firmware download file seems to be related to v1, as the binary file is dated 2013.09.17, obviosly that time IS611 chip did not existed yet
what about the IS611 chip generally? is it working with HDSentinel inside other equipment?

hello
there is a new version of this combo out: "DriveLink Combo USB 3.0 V2" https://en.sharkoon.com/product/27408 and according to their webpage it is based on IS611 chip.
does it have full compatibility with HDSentinel or again some shortcomings?

thanks, for the reply :) i ordered the unit, will arrive at the beginning of august.

ok, and thanks for clearing up. ;) concernning AMD, i'm disappointed. i was thinking to build my next rigs (home server and workstation) based on AMD cpu and thus leaving INTEL, but according to this thread this step would not be smart at all :!: option to consider: add an extra pci-e sata3 RAID add...
