SATA Mode Selection [AHCI]
Allows you to set the SATA conguration.
[IDE Mode] Set to [IDE Mode] when you want to use the Serial ATA hard disk drives as
Parallel ATA physical storage devices.
[AHCI Mode] Set to [AHCI Mode] when you want the SATA hard disk drives to use the
AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface). The AHCI allows the onboard
storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA features that increases
storage performance on random workloads by allowing the drive to
internally optimize the order of commands.
[RAID Mode] Set to [RAID Mode] when you want to create a RAID conguration from the
SATA hard disk drives.
