thank you for your quick reply.

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.

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
my system:
Intel Q6600
PNY 8800gts 512 (g92)
Gigabyte Ga EP45-DS3R (BIOS rev. F11e)
4gb DDR2 ram
snow leopard
XP Pro
