3.10.1 IDE HDD Block Mode
If you enable IDE HDD Block Mode, the enhanced IDE driver will be
enabled. Leave IDE HDD Block Mode on the default setting.
3.10.2 IDE Primary Master/Slave PIO/UDMA Mode, IDE
Secondary Master/Slave PIO/UDMA Mode
(Auto)
Each channel (Primary and Secondary) has both a master and a slave,
making four IDE devices possible. Because each IDE device may
have a different Mode timing (0, 1, 2, 3, 4), it is necessary for these to
be independent. The default setting “Auto” will allow autodetection to
ensure optimal performance.
