SATA Operation Mode
Use this to select SATA Operation Mode. Configuration options: [IDE], [AHCI]
and [Disabled]. The default value is [IDE].
If you select [IDE] mode, the options “SATAII 1,2,3,4 Configuration” and
“SATAII 5,6 Configuration” will appear. If you select [AHCI] mode, the op-
tions “Hot Plug” and “Link Power Management” will appear.
AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) supports NCQ and other
new features that will improve SATA disk performance but IDE
mode does not have these advantages.

Use this item to enable or disable ACPI HPET Table. The default value is
[Disabled]. Please set this option to [Enabled] if you plan to use this
