It's probably that the ide drivers were replaced with a "pata" subsystem a while ago, maybe 5 years? As I understand it, the subsystem written for sata drivers was worth also being used for parallel drivers, i.e. IDE ones, so it became the preferred driver for it, both with a sdX naming convention.
