5.1.2 Chipset SATA Mode
The SATA controller of
Nuvo-2400
supports two modes of operations, IDE and AHCI mode.
IDE mode configures SATA controller to access SATA interface in legacy IDE mode and is
compatible with most storage devices. AHCI mode, which exposes SATA's advanced
capabilities such as hot swapping and native command queuing, can deliver better
performance for disk read/write. As
Nuvo-2400
no longer supports Windows XP, we highly
recommend you to set
[Chipset SATA Mode]
to
[AHCI]
for better system performance.
To set
[Chipset SATA Mode]
:
1. When
Nuvo-2400
boots up, press F2 to enter BIOS setup utility.
2. Go to
[Advanced] / [SATA Configuration]
.
3. Set the
[Chipset SATA Mode]
option to a proper mode for your
Nuvo-2400
.
