And you thought it would be compatible with Chrome OS.... why?

Chrome OS is not Windows.
Chrome OS is not Mac.
Chrome OS is not Linux.

You MIGHT be able to compile the Linux version as a Chrome OS version, but there is no guarantee.

You likely could compile it in a linux container. Lets say chrome os has the kernel drivers needed for a usb to sata enclosure.

You would not be able to get the drive exposed to the linux container. You would need to run your chrome os in dev mode to get access to the sata drive. Then it goes back to the question of do you have the needed kernel modules.
