- To be precise: It also emulates SCSI commands, so there's no
- difference between an SCSI controller and an AT controller referring
- to the Amiga's "side" of the devices they are controlled by. At least
- it should be this way. It's because of this why scsi tools function
- with AT controllers, not because of the device name.
