-current supports SATA -

I don't expect any problems; my laptop is Core Duo, though.

I've been running NetBSD on my laptop (well, four different laptops,
all HP, the present one - nx6310) for the last three years without
much problems. I tend to follow -current fairly closely - weekly
updates on average - and it has been with very few problems, despite
being "cutting edge" and potentially "unstable". You can run amd64,
but probably is not worth it - you are unlikely to have that much
memory available to justify it, so stick with i386.

You probably won't be able to get DRI on this - I don't know what is
the status of the Nouveau project at this time. My Intel 945GM works
just fine with it.

so I can't be sure if your will work.

I remember vaguely someone having problem with this, but don't take my
word for it.
