Hard Drive Mode Settings
Overview DMA (Direct Memory Access) allows the Hard Drives or CDROMs to access memory directly, thereby freeing up CPU resources. The drive transfer rates will be much faster. One can enable DMA on a per channel basis, and all devices on that channel have to be DMA capable, but most drives these days are (although some CDROMs may not be) .PIO Only is much slower than DMA transfer rates & the Page File benefits from a faster data transfer rate, assuming the hard drive(s) support it.
