Descriptions on each item above are as follows:
1. IDE HDD BLOCK MODE
Block mode is also called block transfer, multiple commands, or
multiple sector read/write. If your IDE hard drive supports block mode
(most new drives do), select Enabled for automatic detection of the
optimal number of block read/writes per sector the drive can support
2. IDE DMA TRANSTER ACCESS
To Enable/Disable the IDE DMA transfer access
3. PRIMARY MASTER/SLAVE PIO

The four IDE PIO fields allow you to set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of
the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface supports. Modes
0 through 4 provide successively increased performance. In Auto
mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each
device.
