Yes “VirtIO SCSI” is used but the hard disk itself is created as SATA and not SCSI. Why that?

Here a quote from Proxmox 7.1 roadmap:

VMs with SATA as disk bus may show issues when used with io_uring

  • For now this can be worked around by switching the disk’s Async IO mode to threads (for cache = >write back/through) or native (for cache = off, none or direct sync), respectively, in the Advanced >options of the disk edit dialogue.
  • Note that SATA is really not the best choice for a VM’s disk bus in general, rather use (VirtIO-) SCSI >for best performance and feature set. For Windows VirtIO support is available through the Windows >VirtIO Drivers
