Heh. I'm so used to almost every disk nowadays attaching as sd (sata, usb,

heh.
one day everything that talks ata (including cf cards and old wdc stuff)
should all sit under atascsi and appear as sd(4). i would love it if someone
could spend the time reworking the code to make it happen.
Are the ATA features, normally accessible with atactl(8), supported in any
way for SATA disks appearing as sd(4) disks? I do not know if smartctl
from ports work for them, too.
I have only SCSI, ATA and USB disks currently.
