The device is possibly detected as SCSI/SAS instead of (S)ATA if in some 
mode.

Please provide the following info:
- Vendor and version of the SATA Driver,
- Smartctl command line parameters used,
- Sample smartctl outputs with these parameters and enabled debug output 
(add '-r ioctl,2').

Please use text/plain attachments for the sample outputs.

Thanks,
Christian
