multiple-sector transfers. If Type is set to User, set
Multi-Sector Transfers to 2, 4, 8, or 16 sectors per
block or disable the feature.

Transfer Mode Selects method of moving data to and from the IDE
drive. Options include Standard and the PIO modes 1,
2, 3, and 4, which can improve the performance of a
hard-disk drive. (The higher the PIO number, the faster
the transfer; most newer drives support PIO 4.) For
optimum transfer mode, set Type to Auto. If Type is
set to Disabled, PIO is turned off.
