Master/Slave PIO items on the menu.
¾ IDE Master/Slave PIO
The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields let you
set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of the four IDE devices that
the onboard IDE interface supports. Modes 0 to 4 provide
successively increased performance. In Auto mode, the
system automatically determines the best mode for each
device.
¾ IDE Master/Slave UDMA
Select the mode of operation for the IDE drive. Ultra DMA-
33/66/100/133 implementation is possible only if your IDE
hard drive supports it and the operating environment
includes a DMA driver. If your hard drive and your system
software both support Ultra DMA-33/66/100/133, select Auto
to enable UDMA mode by BIOS.
¾ SATA Mode
There are these options for you to set up SATA mode: IDE,
RAID or AHCI.
NOTE ICH8DO supports AHCI under Microsoft
Windows VISTA and Microsoft Windows XP.
ICH8 only supports AHCI under Microsoft
Windows VISTA.
¾ LEGACY Mode Support
Legacy mode support allows devices to function in an
operating environment that is not USB-aware.
