IDE HDD Block Mode
The terms "multiple commands," "multiple sector read/write," and
"block transfer" are all alternate names for block mode. Unless your
IDE hard drive is old, it should support Block Mode. If Enabled, Block
Mode yields automatic detection of the optimal number of block read/
writes per sector that the drive can support.
IDE Primary Master PIO, IDE Primary Slave PIO, IDE Second-
ary Master PIO, and IDE Secondary Slave PIO
The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields let you set a PIO
mode (from 0 to 4) for each of the four IDE devices supported by the
onboard IDE interface. Modes 0 through 4 provide successively
increasing performance. In Auto mode, the system automatically
determines the best mode for each device.
