That's another story and I totally agree here, but not reusing

I don't really get why everything must be SCSI. Everything must
support read, write, a few other commands, and a large set of
optional commands. But why map them all to SCSI? What's the magic?
Because that's what real hardware with only a few rare exceptions.
I thought that IDE was emulated as SCSI even when it wasn't. But I
guess now with SATA you're right.
