Has anyone tried to install any OpenSolaris distro on SATA drives ?

A friend asked me a question, and I realized that till date, I've
installed on mostly IDE drives.

I recall install OpenSolaris build 55 and build 66 (with Xen bits
included) on Dell D490s which had SATA controllers as well as on-board
STA.

I'd not faced any problem at all at that time.

However, I see this URL http://www.sun.com/io_technologies/sata/SATA0.html

and it talks about SATA not being completely supported.
