Has anybody worked with any of the mix and match SATA / SAS controllers?

They just seem weird to me, so I don't know what I think.

ie. SATA uses the ATA command set.  SAS uses the SCSI command set.

Both SATA & SAS use the same cabling/voltages I believe, so there
should not be an electrical issue, but I just have not seen any
reports (good or bad) about controllers that can supposedly talk both
ATA and SCSI.

In Linux do they use a pure SCSI driver?

BTW: 3ware uses a pure SCSI driver even for it s PATA controller line,
so I don't have an issue with that, just lots of unknowns from my
perspective.
