Historically we used hd[abcdef..] for IDE and sd[...] for SCSI. However ATAPI is very close to SCSI, and SATA is very similar to SCSI, with SAS making the distinction even more blurred. When the old style IDE drivers were converted to use the SATA layer it was decided to simply treat the lot the same way. Alan
