Go to the SCO web site, and look at the supported hardware list.

SCO |

If what you have is not in the list, you will have to contact the component manufacturer to see if they provide a device driver.
Also, just because an item is in the list, does not mean the the driver is on the original OS CD.

Thx, I will try, but do I need an IDE hard disk in the new hardware?
No, but the new system would boot immediately, and without the need for a target kernel, if you were to use an IDE drive as the boot drive, and then add SCSI (RAID ?) for the application and data.
I have not tested using a SATA drive in compatible mode with 5.0.6
