IDE Prefetch Mode
When set at Enabled, it allows data to be posted to and prefetched from
the primary IDE data ports. Data prefetching is initiated when a data port
read occurs. The read prefetch eliments latency to the IDE data ports and
allows them to be performed back to back for the highest possible PIO data
transfer rates. The first data port read of a sector is called the demand read.
Subsequent data port reads from the sector are called prefetch reads. The
demand read and all prefetch reads must be of the same size (16 or 32 bits).
The options are: Enabled, Disabled.
