Done, now it looks like that:
| atapci1: <nVidia AHCI controller> port 0xf80-0xf87,0xf00-0xf03,0xe80-0xe87,0xe00-0xe03,0xb800-0xb80f mem 0xfcffc000-0xfcffdfff irq 20 at device 10.0 on pci0
| atapci1: AHCI Version 01.10 controller with 4 ports detected
| ad4: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500320NS SN05> at ata2-master SATA300
| ad6: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500320NS SN05> at ata3-master SATA300
| ad8: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500320NS SN05> at ata4-master SATA300

Just for the record:
Board is a K9N Neo V3 with nforce 560 chipset.

Changing this BIOS-setting does the trick:
Integrated Periphals -> On-Chip ATA Devices:
RAID mode [AHCI]

"RAID mode" is a verry clever name for that setting...

thanks,
Hilko
