It doesn't matter how big it is, if it's in some remote board farm -- or
if I'm considering adding a disk, and I want to see if the board is
configured to use those pins for SATA or for something else (and thus
whether I need to dig out the board manual and look at DIP switch
configuration).
What harm does the check do?
