3.9 Onboard PCI-IDE
The VIA VT82C686A chip built-in’s PCI-IDE controller supports PIO
mode 3/4 and bus mastering Ultra DMA 33/66. The peak transfer rate of
PIO mode 3/4 can be as high as 17MB/sec. Using HDDs that support
Ultra DMA66, the peak transfer rate can reach 66MB/sec. There are two
IDE connectors - primary IDE and secondary IDE. With two devices per
connector, up to four IDE devices can be supported.
3.10 DMA Channels
There are seven DMA channels available on the motherboard; only
DMA2 is used by the floppy controller. In the case that ECP mode on the
parallel port is utilized, DMA1 or DMA3 will be used.
