EIDE
EIDE is the current standard for low cost, high performance hard disks. EIDE stands for Enhanced IDE.
That is precisely what it is. Some manufacturers call it ATA.
All Pentium system boards since 1995 have a built in EIDE controller. That allows the hard disk to beconnected directly to the system board. The EIDE standard is substantially improved, relative to the old
IDE. Here are some of the improvements:
The hard disk size can exceed the 528 MB, which was the IDE limit. The hard disk interface is moved from the ISA bus to the high speed bus PCI.
Four units can be connected on the mainboard, which has two EIDE channels. Each channel can
be connected to a primary and a secondary unit.
