and SATA 4) of the Serial ATA supported by the NVIDIA nForce 4
chipset.
IDE Prefetch Mode
This allows data and addresses to be stored in the internal buffer of
the chip, thus reducing access time. Enable this field to achieve better
performance.
IDE HDD Block Mode
Enabled
The IDE HDD uses the block mode. The system BIOS
will check the hard disk drive for the maximum block
size the system can transfer. The block size will depend
on the type of hard disk drive.
Disabled
The IDE HDD uses the standard mode.
RAID Config
The NVIDIA nForce4 chipset allows RAID arrays spanning across
Parallel ATA and Serial ATA. This section is used to enable the RAID
function of the Parallel ATA and Serial ATA channels.
