Unity controls the hard-disk. Unity contains a "thin" layer to memory map the most important IDE/ATA registers to memory addresses. The table below was lifted from http://www.t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d0791r4c-ATA-1.pdf / http://www.t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d2008r7b-ATA-3.pdf and then appended with the equivalent foenix registers on Unity.
Question marks are denoted at places where it is unknown if and where unity exposes the relevant register.
Hopefully this information is to some use for anyone trying to implement a hard-disk driver.
Logic conventions are: A = signal asserted;
N = signal negated;
x = does not matter which it is.
Table 6 - I/O port functions/selection addresses
