Auto-Detected Drive Parameters

The “grayed-out” items in the left frame are IDE disk drive parameters automatically detected from the firmware of the selected IDE disk drive. The drive parameters are listed as follows:

Device: Lists the device type (e.g. hard disk, CD-ROM etc.)

Type: Indicates the type of devices a user can manually select

Vendor: Lists the device manufacturer

Size: List the storage capacity of the device.

LBA Mode: Indicates whether the LBA (Logical Block Addressing) is a method of addressing data on a disk drive is supported or not.

Block Mode: Block mode boosts IDE drive performance by increasing the amount of data transferred. Only 512 bytes of data can be transferred per interrupt if block mode is not used. Block mode allows transfers of up to 64 KB per interrupt.

PIO Mode: Indicates the PIO mode of the installed device.

Async DMA: Indicates the highest Asynchronous DMA Mode that is supported.

Ultra DMA: Indicates the highest Synchronous DMA Mode that is supported.

S.M.A.R.T.: Indicates whether or not the Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology protocol is supported.
