Block (Multi-Sector Transfer) M [Auto]

Enables or disables data multi-sectors transfers.

[Auto] When set to [Auto], the data transfer from and to the device occurs

multiple sectors at a time if the device supports multi-sector

transfer feature.

[Disabled] When set to [Disabled], the data transfer from and to the device

occurs one sector at a time.

PIO Mode [Auto]

[Auto] Allows automatic selection of the PIO (Programmed input/output)

modes, which correspond to different data transfer rates.

[0] [1] – [4] Set the PIO mode to Mode 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.

DMA Mode [Auto]

DMA (Direct Memory Access) allows your computer to transfer data to and from

the hardware devices installed with much less CPU overhead.

The DMA mode consists of SDMA (single-word DMA), MDMA (multi-word DMA),

and UDMA (Ultra DMA). Setting to [Auto] allows automatic selection of the DMA

mode, or you can select from the following options: [SWDMA1] [SWDMA2]

[MWDMA0] [MWDMA1] [MWDMA2] [UDMA0] [UDMA1] [UDMA2] [UDMA3]

[UDMA4] [UDMA5]

[Auto] Allows automatic selection of the S.M.A.R.T (Smart Monitoring,

Analysis, and Reporting Technology).

[Enabled] Enable the S.M.A.R.T feature.

[Disabled] Disable the S.M.A.R.T feature.

32Bit Data Transfer [Enabled]

[Enabled] Sets the IDE controller to combine two 16-bit reads from the hard

disk into a single 32-bit double word transfer to the processor. This

makes more efficient use of the PCI bus as fewer transactions are

needed for the transfer of a particular amount of data.

[Disabled] Disable this function.
