I just want to make sure whether it support SATA or
not?
BEcause my PC only have 2 SATA drives.
Tnx in advanced.
There is no "opensolaris 10 express community" distro.
Solaris 10 supports SATA in PATA emulation mode (and it's pretty fast, too).
OpenSolaris and "Nevada" derived from it (future Solaris 11) supported SATA in
PATA mode up until Nevada build 56 (snv_56 / b56).
From snv_56 and on, SATA should be natively supported with the AHCI framework,
according to this document:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/pages/2006122401/
You can check which changes have been introduced into Nevada builds by going looking at
"flag day" notices here:

Whether or not your SATA drives work depends on the chipset,
and whether or not that chipset also works in compatibility mode.
