I would be very surprised to see the ide-scsi driver being used for a
hard drive.  I wouldn't have even thought it possible.

Although it hasn't been needed for a very long time, the ide-scsi driver
used to be required for CD/DVD burning.  Older distributions used to
default to the ide-scsi driver for all cdrom drives.  RHEL is very
conservative, I wouldn't be terribly surprised if still does the same thing.
