I use the following on my snv_77 system with 2 internal SATA drives
that show up with the 'ahci' driver.

# prtconf -D
.....
.....
       pci107b,5047, instance #0 (driver name: ahci)
           disk, instance #4 (driver name: sd)
           disk, instance #5 (driver name: sd)

I assume you could also run modinfo and see which driver you get a hit
on with grep.

# modinfo |grep ahci
 39 fffffffff784d000   8b98  68   1  ahci (ahci driver 1.4)

or

# modinfo |grep cmdk
