In every (linux) server I migrate from XenServer to PVE, i'll add virtio_blk and virtio_pci to initramfs and I'm using Virtio SCSI controller.

For a very, very, very, very, very, very old server, (top performance is not a requirement) i have to migrate in the easiest way, so, if possible, to hardware change, kernel modules and so on.

Can I safely ignore the virtio modules and add the disks as SATA without using Virtio Block as bus ?
