http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esata#eSATA

# Some low-level drive features, such as S.M.A.R.T., may not operate
# through some USB [26] or FireWire or USB+FireWire bridges; eSATA does
# not suffer from these issues provided that the controller manufacturer
# (and its drivers) presents eSATA drives as ATA devices, rather than as
# "SCSI" devices

The above section from the SATA Wikipedia page is what concerns me.
