SATA on Stratix FPGAs

Hello Guys, I was wondering if you share your valuable experiences and ideas with us regarding SATA implementation. I have an old STRATIX dev board and I want to implement SATA protocol on that...

Thanks for your reply. Yeah, you are right. we have only Stratix device without GX Blocks. can we use external hardware to use Gigabit transceivers?(for example, in one of applications, we used Texas Instruments LVDS driver) can you point me to a document which describes SATA PHY requirements a bit in details. I have already googled it and it is kind of vague probably for me at this stage.

thank you.
