IDE drives Identified as SCSI by XP

I find it strange that XP identifies my IDE hard disk and IDE CDrom as SCSI devices. . . tho they both function ok. Anyone else have this occur?

To my knowledge this is normal. Windows both treats IDE RAID controllers and any drives using the VIA 4in1 IDE drivers as SCSI devices.
