Just as a point of reference, on a 915 board with
915# atacontrol list
ATA channel 0:
     Master:      no device present
     Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 1:
     Master:  ad2 <ST3120026AS/3.18> Serial ATA v1.0
     Slave:       no device present

915# dd if=/dev/ad2 of=/dev/null bs=128k count=10000
10000+0 records in
10000+0 records out
