Do Macs need USB WiFi drivers?

Hello.
I decided to buy an external USB whistle for my old man here (mine has something with a module, but there is no possibility for repair, far now), I’m already used to the fact that I “inserted it and it works”, but then I decided to look at the drivers and it turned out that The TP-Link I need for $ 10, as I already understand, does not have firewood. So the question is - do you need additional external drivers for this WiFi or Mavericks will do everything himself? The computer is original, macbook, nothing is hacked, I am a regular user, i.e. I'm not good at tricks. I want to buy this WiFi: TP-Link TL-WN721N or TP-Link TL-WN725N. They are nicer to me. Thanks for the help and advice!

And the built-in card burned down, as I understand it. Connects to the network and resets after a second. And so fixated. It is not possible to take the computer to the service and leave it there. Lots of work.
In general, poppy and external Wi-Fi whistles are not compatible now, as I understand it. As a result, I bought Asus N-10 Nano, the firewood got standard from 10.8, and the utility crashed, it turns out that if the system interface is in Russian, it crashes, you need to switch the system to English. But this does not help completely. Because Share, for example, the Internet on the phone from such a whistle Mac OS cannot. In general, I found, of course, a way out. But he's tough :)
I have 12 gigs of RAM and it's not critical for me. In general, I installed a virtual machine from VmWare. Put 7 there. I connected the Yusb-Hub to the computer, this whistle was put into it. Under 7koy I put asus firewood and a program for sharing the Internet. So it hangs all the time :) Ie. from my computer a virtual network is thrown up to 7ki, and there the Internet is shared on Wi-Fi.
That's all I had enough imagination. But the virtual machine, as you know, cannot be turned off now. :) Such a super virtual router :)

You can find compatible devices with drivers by browsing hackintosh resources. I plugged TP-LINK TL-WN727N v3 into my hackintosh, it is on the Ralink RT5370 chip
