Can anyone recommend a SATA card that will work with a DS10 Alpha, and
which OS supports that card?
thanks

I mean it's a PCI Bus machine (With PCI-X) so any card that has drivers
for your given OS will "work".
The major caveat is that there are no SATA cards that SRM will boot from.
My DS20, however has a boot partition on IDE->CFCard Adapter, (which SRM
knows how to boot from), and then load the OS from the 3ware 8xxx Raid
card.
I'm running Gentoo Linux, but I have to imagine that NetBSD would
function in a similar way.
