1) Yes if no-system. System disks will not boot at x86 because of Apple Partition Scheme used on PowerPC, in x86 Mac OS X uses GUID.
2) Sonnet/SeriTek SATA controller has a 150MB/s (Actually 133 MB/s because of IDE emulation for Classic OS compatibility). PCI-64 33MHz - have 266MB/s (just for two ports enough). But, classic Hard Disk Drives actually have a poor performance, only ones have riches to ~100MB/s. I am used a Solid State Drive, it is expensive, but it really fast. Up to all 150MB/s Read and 130-140MB/s for write in practice without any RAID levels.
3) Any Sonnet, SeriTek, Espada that builded on other than Sil3112 and VIA chipsets.
4) Affirmative. PCI64 - extended version of PCI v.2.1 for 64-bit and 32-bit cards. Throughput 266MB/s.
