Because BIOS does not show them. GRUB is using BIOS services by default
to access devices so it can see only what BIOS shows. You are better off
asking this question on VirtualBox support list.

You could try to install GRUB using "grub-install --disk-module=native
...". This will use AHCI driver instead of asking BIOS. It may work,
although there were reports that VirtualBox crashes in this case.
