At least in C5, all SATA support is handle by libata. And libata uses the SCSI stack to do part of the work. So that is way all SATA devices will show up as "scsi" devices. And if I'm correct people are working on porting the older PATA drivers to the libata framework, so they will also be shown is sdX devices, if I remember correctly Fedora 8 already does this.
