Strange part is that it is recognized as an IDE device.

Integrated Drive Electronics - The circuit board mounted on the drive contains all the info about the HDD so your BIOS will recognize it. You use to have to enter ALL of the specifics (platters, sectors, heads, etc.) manually when you replaced your HDD.
