The internal hard drive is definitely ATA. Apple hasn't shipped a laptop
with internal SCSI drives for a really long time. Any ppc based laptop
definitely has an ATA drive of some flavor, and a few of the 68k based
ones did, too.

Some of the PowerBook G3 models had a large number of ATA channels with
seemingly random bus numbering, so you may want to poke around as suggested.
