Mode 0 
Mode 1

Mode 3 
Mode 4 

The IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields 
let you set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of the four 
IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface 
supports. Modes 0 through 4 provide 
successively increased performance. In Auto 
mode, the system automatically determines the 
best mode for each device. 

IDE Primary Master UDMA 

IDE Primary Slave UDMA 

Auto 

Disabled 

Ultra DMA implementation is possible only if 
your IDE hard drive supports it and the 
operating environment includes a DMA driver 
(Windows 95 OSR2 or a third-party IDE bus 
master driver). If the hard drive and the system 
software both support Ultra DMA, select Auto to 
enable BIOS support. 

IDE HDD Block Mode 

Enabled 

Disabled 

Block mode is also called block transfer, 
multiple commands, or multiple sector 
read/write. If the IDE hard drive supports block 
mode (most new drives do), select Enabled for 
automatic detection of the optimal number of 
block read/writes per sector the drive can 
support. 

Onboard FDC Controller 

Enabled 

Disabled 

Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk 
controller (FDC) installed on the system board 
and you wish to use it. If you are not going to 
use FDC or the system has no floppy drive, 
select Disabled in this field.
