I'm not sure of the criteria, but this is what I'm running:

atapci0: <SiI 3124 SATA300 controller> port 0xdc00-0xdc0f mem 
0xfbeffc00-0xfbeffc7f,0xfbef0000-0xfbef7fff irq 17 at device 4.0 on pci7

atapci1: <SiI 3124 SATA300 controller> port 0xac00-0xac0f mem 
0xfbbffc00-0xfbbffc7f,0xfbbf0000-0xfbbf7fff irq 19 at device 4.0 on pci3

I added ahci_load="YES" to loader.conf and rebooted.  Now I see:

ahci0: <ATI IXP700 AHCI SATA controller> port 
0x8000-0x8007,0x7000-0x7003,0x6000-0x6007,0x5000-0x5003,0x4000-0x400f 
mem 0xfb3fe400-0xfb3fe7ff irq 22 at device 17.0 on pci0

Which is the onboard SATA from what I can tell, not the controllers I 
installed to handle the ZFS array.  The onboard SATA runs a gmirror 
array which handles /, /tmp, /usr, and /var (i.e. the OS).  ZFS runs 
only on on my /storage mount point.
