dma isnt need then! if your drives are all SATA forget about it!

you only need dma for ide drives!

also use direct link from uploaded pics and insert into img tag button on reply section here where you type to reply box...

so forget dma is not needed in your case!

That's not exactly correct. I chose not to install the SATA/RAID drivers hence my my HD's, SATA II and I, show as IDE devices with UDMA enabled.

I have no need for RAID so there is no reason to enable it. So in the BIOS I choose IDE mode for my SATA drives. The HDs work fine. The SATA II drive is at about 78 MB/s and the SATA I drive runs at 54MB/s, much faster than my old IDE setup. I guess I lose Native Command Queuing support and Hot Plugging for SATA drives. Seems to work fine and I have a set up I'm familiar with.

If you do not intend to use a RAID array or the AHCI features, it's recommended that you set this BIOS feature to IDE. This allows you to use the native Windows XP driver and skip the loading of the SATA controller driver during the Windows XP installation routine. It also skips the loading of the SATA controller's RAID functions at boot time, which speeds up the boot process.
