Channel 1 – Represents one of the SATA connectors
Controller 0 – 1st connector (e.g. PATA1 or SATA1)
Controller 1 – 2nd connector (e.g. PATA2 or SATA2)
Master/Slave – SATA drives will always be Master drives since an SATA connector can only
support 1 drive. PATA connectors can support a Master and a Slave drive.
For Example:
On a board with 4 connectors (PATA1, PATA2, SATA1, SATA2), the following applies:
0.0.M = PATA1 (master drive)
0.0.S = PATA1 (slave drive)
0.1.M = PATA2 (master drive)
0.1.S = PATA2 (slave drive)
1.0.M = SATA1
1.1.M = SATA2
