Not yet in SATA mode, but I believe they work in IDE compatibility mode. The SATA mode drivers were being worked on, but the engineer that was working on it left Sun and I'm not sure if they were putback yet (they will be). That will only be for newer SATA II devices, any SATA I devices will only be supported in IDE Compatibility mode. At least this is how I understand it.
