ATA/IDE Configuration
Please select [Compatible] when you install legacy OS (Windows NT). If
native OS (Windows 2000 / XP) is installed, please select [Enhanced].
Then in the option "Configure SATA as", you are allowed to set the selection
from [AHCI] to [RAID] if you plan to enable RAID function. Configuration
options: [AHCI], [IDE], and [RAID]. The default value is [AHCI].
1. AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) supports Hot
Plug, NCQ and other new features that will improve SATA
disk performance but IDE mode does not have these
advantages.
2. Only AHCI and RAID modes support Hot Plug function.
When [Compatible] is selected
Combined Option
It allows you to select between [SATA0, 1, 2, 3], [IDE1, SATA1, SATA3],
and [SATA0, SATA2, IDE1]. If it is set to [SATA0, SATA2, IDE1], then
SATAII_BLACK (PORT1), SATAII_ORANGE (PORT3) will not work. Likewise,
if it is set to [IDE1, SATA1, SATA3], then SATAII_BLUE (PORT0), SATAII_RED
(PORT2) will not work.
Set [Compatible]
when Legacy OS
(MS-DOS, WinNT)
is used.
Set [Enhanced]
when Native OS
(Win2000 / XP)
is used.
