I've heard tales the the amiga was once coing to have scsi but the used IDE instead to save on costs, who knows, welcome the the pear world of amiga.
Before the A4000, Commodore shipped only SCSI solutions (or well, the A590 shipped with an XT-IDE mechanism, but also had SCSI)
Guess what the device name for all the RDB capable Commodore SCSI controllers was?
Most likely they called the ide device scsi.device too so they didn't have to kludge hdtoolbox.. HDTB searches for scsi.device per default -> call the ide driver that too and you can ship the same install disks for the entire range.
(The A2090 wasn't scsi.device, but it's very different to other Amiga hd controllers)
