05:00.0 SATA controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE9230 PCIe SATA 6Gb/s Controller (rev 11)
This output suggests that this controller behaves like as a standard AHCI SATA controller. Please retry without the -d marvell option. This option was added 11+ years ago for some Marvell driver which is probably outdated now. This driver would identify itself with "MVSATA..." (instead of "ATA...") in the SCSI INQUIRY result (-d scsi).
Try also how this device appears in smartctl --scan and smartctl --scan-open outputs.

Replying to samm2:
Hi, as far as i could see - 88SE9230 is a software raid chip
It's both. If you look at the specification the first line says
- Marvell RAID Software Yes
but below it says
- Hardware RAID Yes, RAID 0/1/10
I use it as a Hardware RAID (enabled in its BIOS setting)
It shows up only as /dev/sda (no /dev/sda1 etc)

Thank you for provided feedback. It seems that Linux see only hardware raid (MARVELL Raid VD) and smartctl do not have support for it. Options for you are:
- turn off raid in the bios and use mdraid to get raid functionality
- try to find any vendor utility or documentation for this RAID
I the web i found some references about MRU and Marvell RAID Command Line Interface (CLI). I have no such hardware so not able to help you more.

I understand this is a closed ticket, but I would like to share my experience on this issue here.
With a newer firmware 2.3.0.1058, Marvel 89SE9230 is able to report SMART information. This firmware can be found here: http://homeservershow.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9179-marvell-9230-firmware-updates-and-such/#entry102871. After upgrading firmware I am able to read SMART information directly using smartctl. The information seems valid but I don't know which disk it is referring to; I still haven't figure out how to access SMART report for a specified individual disk of the array.
$ sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdb

Hi, as far as i could see - from the specification 88SE9230 is a software raid chip, so you should see your drives as normal devices under Linux. Anyway, -d marvell is for outdated ata based controller and will not work with hardware RAID.
