► IDE HDD Block Mode

If your IDE hard drive supports block mode, select [Enabled] for automatic detection of the 
optimal number of block read/write per sector.

► IDE DMA Transfer Access

[Disabled] : to disable DMA transfers for all IDE drives. They will revert to PIO mode transfers. 
[Enabled] : to enable DMA transfers for all IDE drives. The proper DMA mode will be detected 
at boot-up. If the drive does not support DMA transfers, then it will use PIO mode instead.
Recommend leaving this BIOS feature at the default [Enabled] setting. You should only disable
