There are two drivers for Serial ATA controllers.
- The main driver, "libata", exists inside the SCSI subsystem
- and supports most modern SATA controllers.
+ The main driver, "libata", uses the SCSI subsystem

The IDE driver (which you are currently configuring) supports
a few first-generation SATA controllers.
If you are unsure, say N here.
