I wish I could help by experience, but, I haven't gone SATA yet. Have the chipsets, just
not the need/hardware. Anyhow, I got these two links that may help.

http://www.linux-ide.org/chipsets.html
http://www.linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html

I've "heard" good things about silicon image, and not so good things about ICH5.
RAID could be sketch. Development is constant...

That's all here, if/when, please post your results :)

bests,
