Well I don't have this hardware, Thomas have. But with this question
I guess this board have (a) SATA port(s).

Moreover openblocks-ax3 is not (yet) in Jason branch so I can't make
a patch applying on a file which doesn't exist on my branch. It could
be a dependency but I try to reduce it as far as I can.

But as soon as this series will be applied, adding SATA support for
openblocks-ax3 should be pretty fast and just a matter of updating
the dts.
