[. . . ] Standby mode: in this mode, the video and hard drives shut down; all other devices continue to operate normally. Striping: see RAID UltraDMA-33/66/100: a fast version of the old DMA channel. Without proper UltraDMA controller, your system cannot take advantage of higher data transfer rates of the new UltraDMA/UltraATA hard drives. This one port type can function as a serial, parallel, mouse, keyboard or joystick port. [. . . ]
