LBA (Logical Block Addressing) is a method of addressing data on a disk
drive. In the LBA mode, the maximum drive capacity is 137 GB. For drive
capacities over 137 GB, your system must be equipped with 48-bit LBA
mode addressing. If not, contact your manufacturer or install an ATA/133
IDE controller card that supports 48-bit LBA mode. The options are Dis-
abled or Auto.
Block (Multi-Sector Transfer)
Block mode boosts IDE drive performance by increasing the amount of
data transferred. Only 512 bytes of data can be transferred per interrupt
if block mode is not used. Block mode allows transfers of up to 64 KB
per interrupt. Select Disabled to allow the data to be transferred from
and to the device one sector at a time. Select Auto to allows the data
transfer from and to the device occur multiple sectors at a time if the
device supports it. The options are Auto and Disabled.
