I should also have mentioned that I looked in my  BIOS and didn't see
anything relevant. Here is the pciconf output:

atapci0 at pci0:0:31:2:    class=0x010180 card=0x01c21028 chip=0x27c48086
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = '82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage
Controller'
    class      = mass storage
    subclass   = ATA
