That depends on the controller. Check http://linux.yyz.us/sata for the various driver status.
I loaded 9.1 on a dell box with some or other SATA Raid controller configured for raid-5 with 5 discs. Can't remember the controller and I don't have access to that box anymore, so I can't check. But it did pick it up first time and install without a problem, and it's been running smoothly since.
As I said, it's not "solid" yet. I'd be very carefull before buying to make certain there's not going to be a problem. Fred -- The only bug free software from MickySoft is still shrink-wrapped in their warehouse..."
