Overview
Channels of ISA Cards
Some Legacy and
ISA add-on cards may also need to use a Direct Memory
Access (DMA) channel. DMA assignments for this mainboard are handled in
the same way as the IRQ assignment process outlined above. For more
information, please refer to Chapter 3 of this manual.
Enhanced IDE
This mainboard features an integrated Enhanced IDE controller that provides
convenient, high-speed connections with up to four IDE devices, such as Hard
Disk, CD-ROM and Tape Backup Drives. Enhanced IDE is an upgrade of the
original IDE specification and provides increased capabilities and performance
in a number of areas, including support for Hard Disk Drives of over
and
faster data transfer rates utilizing the
Mode 4 timing scheme.
With the integrated IDE controller you can connect up to four IDE peripheral
devices to your system. All devices are categorized in the same way that IDE
Hard Disks were configured in the past, with one device set as the Master device
and the other as the Slave device. We recommend that Hard Disk Drives use the
Primary IDE connector and that CD-ROM drives utilize the Secondary IDE
connector for improved system performance.
