Judging from my dmesg and lsscsi on a system with both scsi and SATA,
ataX translates into scsi X:0:0:0

There is no translation.

It is random, based on driver load order.

This then begs the question whether it can be dependingly derived from 
dmesg messages. Like messages

[    2.268315] ata7.00: configured for UDMA/133
[    2.277452] scsi 7:0:0:0: Direct-Access     ATA      WDC WD7500AAKS-0 
30.0 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

always following each other, thus making identification possible.
