hm. markings? besides 'Sanyo LAT-200A' there is '2EC4BIPB32100
revision 2' ('I' or '1', don't know). chipset is made by Headland
Technology, three IC's are marked as: HT101A/B14A4924, GC113-PC
and HT102/B1A4000. there are also two sanyo chips: PH80C42A
and MB622160/16LT-DUAL.

what 'passive backplane' should do? provide power from PSU?
what will happen if i stick this into a normal pc?
