ATA interface
These drives use the industry-standard ATA task file interface that supports 16-bit data transfers. It supports 
ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; multiword DMA modes 0–2, and Ultra DMA modes 0–5. The 
drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.
For detailed information about the ATA interface, refer to the draft of AT Attachment with Packet Interface 
Extension (ATA/ATAPI-6), NCITS T13 1410D, 
subsequently referred to as the Draft ATA-6 Standard.
