Duh I am blind..
It shares an IRQ with the RAID controller..

atapci0: <Promise PDC20378 SATA150 controller> port 0x7800-0x783f,0x7400-0x740f,0x7000-0x707f mem 0xfb300000-0xfb300fff,0xfb200000-0xfb21ffff irq 18 at device 8.0 on pci0
puc0: <Dolphin Peripherals 4036> port 0x9400-0x941f irq 18 at device 13.0 on pci0

The disks are SATA150 though, no PIO here!
