SATA HDD: The SATA function in the ICH7 has dual modes of operation to support different operating system

conditions. In the case of native IDE enabled operating systems, the ICH7 has separate PCI functions for

serial and parallel ATA (enhanced mode). To support legacy operating systems, there is only one PCI

function for both the serial and parallel ATA ports if functionality from both SATA and PATA devices is

desired (combined mode). SATA interface transfer rates are independent of UDMA mode settings. SATA

interface transfer rates will operate at the bus’s maximum speed, regardless of the UDMA mode reported by

the SATA device or the system BIOS.
