While entering Setup, the BIOS automatically detects the presence of SATA

devices. There is a separate sub-menu for each SATA device. Select a

device item then press to display the SATA device information.

The BIOS automatically detects the values opposite the dimmed items

(Device, Vendor, Size, LBA Mode, Block Mode, PIO Mode, Async DMA, Ultra

DMA, and SMART monitoring). These values are not user-configurable.

These items show N/A if no IDE device is installed in the system.

LBA/Large Mode [Auto]

Enables or disables the LBA mode. Setting to Auto enables the LBA mode

if the device supports this mode, and if the device was not previously

formatted with LBA mode disabled.

Configuration options: [Disabled] [Auto]

Block (Multi-Sector Transfer) M [Auto]

Enables or disables data multi-sectors transfers. When set to Auto, the

data transfer from and to the device occurs multiple sectors at a time if

the device supports multi-sector transfer feature. When set to [Disabled],

the data transfer from and to the device occurs one sector at a time.
