I'm not totally sure about the status of the SATA on the Intel right
now. I was under the impression it was very similar to the PATA.

For some of the others its a bit variable:
HPT some people report work some dont
Promise 20376 - Promise have a GPL driver but there are integration
things to resolve (mostly our end not theirs)
SI 3112 - Now works well with almost all drives.
3Ware SATA raid - works
