use of HDD. For newer Operating Systems that support the Enhanced Mode, such
as Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows 2003, you can set SATA and PATA
to the Enhanced Mode. (*The newer Operating Systems can accommodate both
Enhanced Mode and Combined Mode and support up to 6 ATA devices.)
(*Please refer to the "Advanced Chipset Control" under the "Advanced" Setup in
the BIOS for the selection of Combined Mode or Enhanced Mode,).

of HDD. Up to 4 ATA devices are supported by this mode.
