And that's apparently a VIA chipset SATA controller:

pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x0f function 0x00: vendor 0x1106 device 0x3149
 VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA VT6420 SATA RAID Controller


I think that VIA SATA controllers are not supported by Solaris,
similar to this bug:

    Bug ID       6411071
    Synopsis    sata hdd is not recognised during install.
    http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6411071

Is there a BIOS setting to disable the RAID mode of the VIA chipset
SATA controller?  Try to set the controller to P-ATA legacy mode,
or maybe AHCI mode;  that should be supported by OpenSolaris.
