IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA
Ultra DMA/33/66/100 implementation is possible only if your IDE HDD(s) can support it,
and if the operating environment includes a DMA driver (Windows 95 OSR2 or higher or
a third-party IDE bus master driver). If both your HDD(s) and your system software can
support Ultra DMA/33/66/100, select “Auto” to enable BIOS support.

Block Mode is also called Block Transfer, Multiple Commands, or Multiple Sector Read/

drive can support.
