Yes, its a SATA disk and smartctl works with -d sat or without:

But with smartd:

smartd.conf:
/dev/sda -H

smartd -d

Opened configuration file /etc/smartd.conf
Configuration file /etc/smartd.conf parsed.
Device: /dev/sda, opened
Device /dev/sda: ATA disk detected behind SAT layer
  Try adding '-d sat' to the device line in the smartd.conf file.
  For example: '/dev/sda -a -d sat'
Unable to register SCSI device /dev/sda at line 36 of file /etc/smartd.conf
Unable to register device /dev/sda (no Directive -d removable). Exiting.
