    Storage Controllers in Device Manager


    Hi,
    This is not a problem( i guess) but knowledge base query.Wish to understand this basic.
    I have a old laptop dell with i3(1st gen)/3gb/320gb sata/dvd/win 7 upgraded to win 10.
    Here my device manager shows an entry of IDE ATA/ATAPI Storage controller and my sata controller listed under it.
    Qst1. Why sata driver are listed under IDE section?(in bios sata drive set in ahci mode)

    Just purchased new laptop HP i3(10th)/8gb/1tb ssd/integrated graphics/no dvd/win 10 home
    Here my device manager has no such entry like IDE ATA/ATAPI Storage Controller but has entry that says Storage controller and under it Intel Chipset Sata/pcie. (image attached)
    Qst.2. Why that IDE ATA xxxx not listed in this new laptop?
    How/why is this change when both the hdd are sata and running in ahci mode?

    :)
