I really have a (native) SATA drive, I checked the ID from dmesg.

Seems rather unlikely that they would plumb the same notebook both ways.
The 100GB drive in the i9300 here is a "FUJITSU MHV2100AH" (PATA).

This one is a MHT2080A and it looks indeed it's not SATA, so no NCQ.
Still I'd like to run in ACHI mode ;-)

I must have been fooled by the FC3 setup disk that handed it libata,  I
didn't know libata also handles pata, then.
