Help: SATA Mode In Legacy Mode, BIOS can

mix of SATA and PATA drives
(See Legacy IDE Channel option

In Enhanced Mode, the BIOS is
not limited to legacy PATA four-
drive limitations, and can
enumerate the two PATA drives
and four SATA drives (totaling six
drives) regardless of AHCI mode,
and can list/boot to the remaining
two SATA drives as well with
AHCI Support.
AHCI and RAID Modes are
supported only when SATA Mode
is selected as “Enhanced”.
