There are plenty of hardware items for which there are Linux drivers  
but no OSX drivers. (In fact I think Linux supports more hardware than  
OSX). Just because it doesn't work on OSX, doesn't mean it won't work  
on Linux.

I think SATA controller's are probably more likely to be supported on  
Linux than OSX. It's probably worth checking anyway.
