I suspect both the ATA controller and the SATA ports are as yet 
unsupported, and pciide(4) matches all devices that advertise themselves 
as ATA controllers (which most SATA controllers do as well, barring some 
that advertise themselves as RAID or SCSI controllers). So, pciide0 is 
the onboard parallel ATA controller and the other pciide controllers are 
for the SATA ports.
