Allows you to set the SATA configuration.
[IDE Mode] 

Set to [IDE Mode] when you want to use the Serial ATA hard disk drives as 

Parallel ATA physical storage devices.

[AHCI Mode] 

Set to [AHCI Mode] when you want the SATA hard disk drives to use the 

AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface). The AHCI allows the onboard 

storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA features that increases 

storage performance on random workloads by allowing the drive to 

internally optimize the order of commands.

[RAID Mode] 

Set to [RAID Mode] when you want to create a RAID configuration from the 

SATA hard disk drives.

S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) is a monitor system. When 

read/write of your hard disk errors occur, this feature allows the hard disk to report warning 

messages during the POST. Configuration options: [Enabled] [Disabled] 

These items appear only when you set the SATA mode item to [AHCI Mode] or [RAID Mode], 

and allow you to enable/disable SATA Hot Plug Support. Configuration options: [Disabled]
