 Looks good:
 
 mmoll at marduk:~$ dmesg |grep ^ad
 ad4: 715404MB <WDC WD7500AYYS-01RCA0 30.04G30> at ata2-master SATA300
 ad6: 715404MB <WDC WD7500AYYS-01RCA0 30.04G30> at ata3-master SATA300
 
 BTW, here's a picture of the board:
 http://www.tuxjournal.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/via_vb8001_top_h.jpg
 The Southbridge is labeled as "8237S" there, not 6420.

 According to the Operating Guide for the board (available at 
 http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/embedded/ProductDetail.jsp?productLine=1&motherboard_id=711
 -> Downloads -> Operating Guide): "It supports for up to two SATA (3
 Gbps) devices" and it also has one 40pin IDE Connector onboard (I think
 I turned that off in the BIOS).
 
 Maybe that's the difference between the devices with the differing
 PCI-IDs? With the patch from the -current mailinglist the disks
 negotiated to SATA300 (according to dmesg).
