This release did add support for native SATA controllers using the SCSI system, similar to how libata works, in part because their current IDE infrastructure would require a lot of invasive improvements to support SATA features. It's interesting to see the same decisions made in different kernels. OTOH support for 1TB filesystems puts OpenBSD about 13 years behind Linux.
