Before the update to High Sierra I could see my SATA disks with orange icons as detachable (hot plug activated in Bios) but now it shows up like internal disks no detachable (Finder not showing eject arrow), and not hot plug capable. It shows as PCI connection too, and not the actual SATA connection.
I've deactivated some kext inyections in Clover thinking that could be the problem but nothing happened.

Do someone knows if this has to do with High Sierra or is it something wrong with Clover (r4289) ?

I notice the exact same thing.
Very sad, because it was real useful to be able to activate and deactivate disks or CD-drives.
Any one knows a reason or a solution for this?

Probably High Sierra.

Certain SATA controllers have issues with AppleAHCIPort v329 (eg ICH10, 5 series, 7 series, ASMedia 1061) ---> Disks may fail to initialize, not readable or hot plug may fail.
 
This is a real shame. It was a very useful thing to do with your drives. I've tried DSDT edits on my SATA ports to no avail. Port Injectors do not work. I am hoping there will be a Clover KextToPatch solution to this soon. So far, I have not seen any. I do notice however, that if you leave the drives connected at boot, and you hot-plug them, the ports remain hot-pluggable. But it doesn't seem to consistently work, sometimes it fails to hot-swap. Either way, the drives no longer show up as external drives such as in 10.12.

Issue with High Sierra AppleAHCIPort.kext v329 not playing nice with Intel ICH10 and other controllers. Fix is given by sunki from InsanelyMac.

Obviously use either a plist editor, or Clover Configurator to insert the patch.... All values are in base64 in plist formatting, convert to HEX depending on how you are editing.

This worked for me with the caveat that you copypasta this code into Clover Configurator text mode and not enter each field value into the Kext and Kernal pane like I did at first. Do a Command+F search to find the right spot and paste it inline. Make sure that you enable the hot swap and external options for each eSata port that you wish to use in BIOS.

Hi thanks for finding this.
But I don't know at all how to install this code to my Hackmac.
I use clover configurator and a plist editor.
Do I copy and paste this anywhere?
Is it in the text mode section of clover configurator?
I have different text in the text mode.
Where exactly does this code go in the window?

Thanks!
