10.3.2.11. DMA Mode
This option allows you to select the DMA mode option (depending on the integrated device). Available settings are:
Auto , SWDMA0, SWDMA1, SWDMA2, MWDMA0, MWDMA1, MWDMA2, UDMA0, UDMA1, UDMA2, UDMA3, UDMA4,
UDMA5 and UDMA6.
Auto
If " Auto " is set, the BIOS auto-detects the DMA mode. This is the default setting.
SWDMA0
If " SWDMA0 " is set the BIOS uses the Single Word DMA mode 0. It has a data transfer rate of 2.1MBs.
SWDMA1
If " SWDMA1 " is set the BIOS uses the Single Word DMA mode 1. It has a data transfer rate of 4.2MBs.
SWDMA2
If " SWDMA2 " is set the BIOS uses the Single Word DMA mode 2. It has a data transfer rate of 8.3MBs.
MWDMA0
If " MWDMA0 " is set the BIOS uses the Multi Word DMA mode 0. It has a data transfer rate of 4.2MBs.
MWDMA1
If " MWDMA1 " is set the BIOS uses the Multi Word DMA mode 1. It has a data transfer rate of 13.3MBs.
MWDMA2
If " MWDMA2 " is set the BIOS uses the Multi Word DMA mode 2. It has a data transfer rate of 16.6MBs.
UDMA0
If " UDMA0 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 0. It has a data transfer rate of 16.6MBs (the
same data transfer rate as PIO mode 4, and Multi Word DMA mode 2).
UDMA1
If " UDMA1 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 1. It has a data transfer rate of 25MBs.
UDMA2
If " UDMA2 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 2. It has a data transfer rate of 33.3MBs.
UDMA3
If " UDMA3 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 3. It has a data transfer rate of 44.4MBs. It is
required to be used the 80-conductor ATA cable for this data transfer rate.
UDMA4
If " UDMA4 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 4. It has a data transfer rate of 66.6MBs. It is
required to be used the 80-conductor ATA cable for this data transfer rate.
UDMA5
If " UDMA5 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 5. It has a data transfer rate of 99.9MBs. It is
required to be used the 80-conductor ATA cable for this data transfer rate.
UDMA6
If " UDMA6 " is set the BIOS uses the Ultra DMA mode 6. It has a data transfer rate of 133.2MBs. It is
required to be used an 80-conductor ATA cable for this data transfer rate.
10.3.2.12. S.M.A.R.T.
S. M. A. R. T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) is used to predict drive failures. (The integrated
drive has to support this feature).
Available Settings are: Auto , Disabled and Enabled .
10.3.2.13. 32Bit Data Transfer
This option allows you to enable or disable the 32bit data transfer rate for the IDE devices. If this option is "Enabled" the
date transfer is accelerated and the CPU (PCI Bus) is relieved.
Available settings are: Enabled and Disabled .
