1. No Jumpers Each SATA cable is only used to connect a single device As a result SATA devices have no need for the master slave ID jumpers required by P ATA devices 53 54 Easy Software Migration SATA provides a parallel ATA emulation mode to maintain software compatibility As this allows continued use of most PATA software and drivers the migration to SATA is eased ATA Mode ATA supports the following five modes P ATA Only Only parallel ATA devices may be used Both the primary port and secondary port are available Serial ATA cannot be used S ATA Only Only serial ATA devices may be used Divided into two sub modes e Legacy mode SATA devices operate as a the primary master and secondary master and standard resources are used Native mode SATA devices operate in a different mode to the primary port and secondary port and arbitrarily assigned resources may be used as per other PCI devices Interrupts become PCI interrupts so the individual port interrupts IRO14 15 are released Combined This mode emphasizes standard compatibility for use of both parallel ATA and serial ATA devices This mode operates as follows e P ATA Primary The parallel ATA primary port and the serial ATA secondary port are available The parallel ATA secondary port cannot be used Enhanced This mode allows use of both parallel ATA and serial ATA devices such that the max imum configuration can be connected The parallel ATA uses b
