Looks like it's Hitachi:

scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access   ATA    Hitachi HTS72202 DC4A PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

Looking at lsmod under Fedora 8, I see the following:

ata_generic         8773 0
pata_acpi          8641 0
ata_piix          17860 2
libata           128561 3 ata_generic,pata_acpi,ata_piix
scsi_mod         123341 4 sg,sr_mod,libata,sd_mod
