Have a computer with no floppy and a cd drive with only serial ata connections. Is dban compatible?

I've used it on Dell GX520's which are SATA drives. I used a floppy though although I don't think there is a difference between the two.

Just used dban on an HP DX5150 which runs SATA. Worked like a charm. We use a floppy image over a pxe boot system here.

The only system I have seen DBAN NOT work on was based on an ASUS SIS760GX/965L chipset motherboard(K8S-MX).
