my mainboard is using ICH10 SATA controller.
is this the Problem ?

I think Apple has no official support for hot plugging but it sounds logical that internal devices not to bo hot plugged.
Try using the patch only for the ports you dont need hot plugging functionality.
That was my first thought, too :)
but the problem is that the SATA part of the fix looks totally different than the one from my DSDT
iīm not sure how to find e.g SATA port 4, caus i donīt know were in the DSDT/Fix code it get configured.
this is how regonization looks in my dsdt:

it would really help if someone could point me were SATA 5 port is in my DSDT and were it is in the patch code
Update:
Ok, i thinki found out were the 4th SATA bay is configured.
This is the code for it:
Device (PRT3)
{
Name (_ADR, 0x03)
Method (_GTF, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Name (PIB3, Buffer (0x07)
{
0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xB0, 0xF5
})
Return (PIB3)
}
Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
{
Store (Package (0x02)
{
"io-device-location",
Buffer (0x06)
{
"Bay 4"
}
}, Local0)
DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
Return (Local0)
}
}
the code let the 4th SATA port to be detected as integrated.
i want to modify it to let OSX recognize it as normal SATA port (like it did without the DSDT patch)
how can i do this ?

I'm not sure if I follow you, by default os x will think all the ports are external, the patch will make them look as internal, if you just want port 3 as external just keep its code untouched and put the patched code just in ports 0,1,2.
thank you for your quick reply.

would be great if it should be so easy.
sadly it isnīt
i will try to explain it a bit more detailed:
I dont want the internal HHDīs to have orange icons, thatīs why i patched the DSDT.
to patch it, i use this "fix":

i delete the the complete SATA Part of the DSDT and copy&paste the fix into it
the fix patched all 6 SATA Ports of my mainboard to work as integrated (=>all loose their hot plugging abilities)
when i tryed to connect my esata HDD, nothing happens.
so i decidet that one SATA Port has to stay unfixed, caus without the patch SATA hot plugging works.
here is werte problem start:
as i said before I completely delete the original SATA Part and replace it with the "fix".
but the original DSDT sata part looks totally different than the "fix"
here is the original part:

now i dont know how to merge the Original code with the "fix" because they look so different
