> The SCSI ids are one less than ATA ids because they start at 0 rather than 1. So, ata4.00 is the same as scsi-3:0:0:0. On my system this means that ata4.00 is sdap.

...which presumably stops working as soon as there's a non-ATA SCSI
device in the system.  (It worked for me, I think, but there really
ought to be a generic solution.)

Again, what's apparently missing is a map between ata
ports/links/devices and scsi hosts/targets/devices.
