SATA Operation Mode
Use this to select SATA Operation Mode. Configuration options: [IDE], [AHCI]
and [Disabled]. The default value is [IDE].
If you select [IDE] mode, the options “SATAII 1,2,3,4 Configuration” and
“SATA5, eSATA 1 Configuration” will appear.
If you select [AHCI] mode, the options “Hot Plug” and “Link Power Manage-
ment” will appear.
AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) supports NCQ and other
new features that will improve SATA disk performance but IDE
mode does not have these advantages.
