Translation Mode
In Translation Mode you have four possible settings:
• Auto
reads the hard disk parameters and automatically sets the correct mode
(Normal, LBA, Large). The Translation Mode “Auto” is set as the default.
• Normal
used for hard disks with a memory capacity of
504 Mbytes.
• LBA (Logical Block Addressing)
is used for hard disks with a memory capacity of
504 Mbytes.
• Large
must be set for hard disks with a memory capacity of
504 Mbytes which do not
support the LBA mode.
Block Mode
Sets the block mode for DMA transfers. As the hard disks in the M7-400 are not
being operated in DMA mode, this check box should not be activated.
32 Bits
Sets 32-bit access mode. As this is not supported by ISA hard disk controllers, this
check box should not be activated.
Fast PIO
Sets a faster Programmed Input Output mode.
