Refer to the Set Features Command description in the ATA Specification for more information.
A drive may only be enabled for a Single DMA capability. In general, if a drive supports a
supported Ultra DMA speed, then Ultra DMA is configured for the drive. If a drive does not
support Ultra DMA, then it should be configured with it’s selected DMA speed, if it exists. If a
drive supports only PIO (does not have support for either Ultra DMA or DMA speeds), then the
drive shall only be accessed in a PIO mode only.
If a drive is configured for an Ultra DMA speed or a DMA speed, its corresponding DMA-capable
bit in the PCI Bus Master I/O Status Register (Primary: PCI Bus Master IDE I/O Offset + 02h;
Secondary - PCI Bus Master I/O Offset + 0Ah) MUST be set. This will allow PCI Bus Master IDE
capable device drivers to recognize the fact that this drive has been identified and configured by the
firmware for PCI Bus Master IDE operation.
