I have this FBLite2 with board 810085. Does anyone know the pinout for the sata connection? I've found where it is but not sure how to determine which pins are A+ A-, etc. The controller is Marvell 88i1053T

Same MCU? If so, then follow the SATA Tx/Rx differential pairs between MCU and SATA connector.

Perfect! Thank you. I could not find a picture of a board with that MCU anywhere

By the way, don't forget to remove four bypass capacitors close to the USB bridge, it's important.

yes. but they are called coupling cap(acitor)s. Bypass (decoupling) caps are used to filter supply lines.
