Choice
On-Chip Primary PCI IDE
The integrated peripheral controller contains an
IDE interface with support for two IDE
channels. Select Enabled to activate each
channel separately.
IDE Primary Master/Slave PIO
The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output)
fields let you set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of
the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE
interface supports. Modes 0 through 4 provide
successively increased performance. In Auto
mode, the system automatically determines the
best mode for each device.
IDE Primary Master/Slave UDMA
UDMA (Ultra DMA) is a DMA data transfer
protocol that utilizes ATA commands and the
ATA bus to allow DMA commands to transfer
data at a maximum burst rate of 33 MB/s. When
you select Auto in the four IDE UDMA fields
(for each of up to four IDE devices that the
internal PCI IDE interface supports), the system
automatically determines the optimal data
transfer rate for each IDE device.
On-Chip Secondary PCI IDE
The integrated peripheral controller contains an
IDE interface with support for two IDE
channels. Select Enabled to activate each
channel separately.
