Re-reading AHCI spec, it does indicate that you want to set SActive

SActive is intentionally used for non-NCQ devices. The SATA registers are -host- registers not -device- registers, remember.

At the very least, I would like to see a lot of testing before you make the current unconditional code conditional.
