ALL IN 1 HDD Docking (Unitek) in Linux

Since my external HDD`s adapter died and I found out that these Western Digital`s adapters are bad all over through Google. I threw the contoller away and bought a new instead of another faulty adapter. There were little information about this controller, but it has tons of features at a low cost. My main concern was support in Ubuntu, but I found some defuse info about Linux support after some heavy Googling. I gave it a shoot and this post is my blessing for it`s plug`n`play comparability with Linux. I can now use the WD SATA disk and an old IDE disk laying around!

    Thanks in advance for any help.
