EIDE Support: Dell Dimension P133v, P166v, and P200v

EIDE Support: Dell™ Dimension™ P133v, P166v, and P200v

The system board provides 2 independent high-performance bus-mastering PCI EIDE interfaces capable of supporting PIO Mode-4 devices. The system BIOS supports logical block addressing (LBA) and extended cylinder sector head (ECSH) translation modes as well as AT API devices on both EIDE interfaces. The system BIOS automatically detects the EIDE device transfer rate and the translation mode capability.

In the Microsoft� Windows� 95 operating system, a driver provided by Intel allows the EIDE interface to operate as a PCI bus master capable of supporting PIO Mode-4 devices with transfer rates up to 22 MB/sec while minimizing the system demands upon the processor. Normally, programmed I/O operations require a substantial amount of microprocessor bandwidth. In true multitasking operating systems like Windows 95, the microprocessor bandwidth freed up by using bus-mastering EIDE can be used to complete other tasks while disk transfers are occurring.
