Ultra DMA 100 functionality can be implemented if it is supported by the IDE hard drives
in your system. As well, your operating environment requires a DMA driver (Windows 95
OSR2 or a third party IDE bus master driver). If your hard drive and your system software
both support Ultra DMA 100, select "Auto" to enable BIOS support.
Options: Auto (default)、Disabled

role of one IDE channel in the system. This means that you will have
one available IDE channel for 2 SATA drives to use (each IDE channel
can support 2 IDE drives). If you were to install all both IDE drives
and 4 SATA drives, you will only see 2 of the SATA drives along with
the 2 IDE drives.

and 4 SATA drives). Note: You cannot use "Enhanced" mode with
Windows® 98/ME. It only support to install Windows® 2000/ XP if you
want to boot from SATA device. (It's restriction from Microsoft.)
