Intel Q965 + ICH8, which does SATA300.  atacontrol output proves the
disk is capable of SATA300 (re: "Serial ATA II"), but for some reason
it's not.

This one is indeed odd and needs investigation.

Intel P35 + ICH9.  The chipset does SATA300 but your disks do not --
they are Barracuda 7200.7 disks, which support SATA150 maximum.
However, the motherboard also has a JMicron controller on it.

After looking at http://www.farley.org/freebsd/tmp/SATA/dmesg-asus.boot,
it's easy to determine that your SATA150 disks are connected to the ICH9
controller (which is being reported at ICH8 for some reason; maybe a
chipset ID thing).  They are not connected to the JMicron, so the
SATA150 limitation here is caused by the disks.

The SATA ATAPI errors you see are something I can't really help with,
many see these kinds of messages on all sorts of hardware.
