Re: Why Windows show my SATA disk as SCSI?
It is showing it as a SAS SCIS disk ( Serial Attached Scsi) SATA and SAS use a common standard, and in fact SAS can read SATA ( the reverse doesn't work tho.) Your controller is probably a SAS controller.

Re: Why Windows show my SATA disk as SCSI?
the labeling doesnt mean anything wrong or to be alarmed about; its a common annoyance really
