Functional Description

The PCH SATA host controller (D23:F0) supports AHCI or RAID mode.

The PCH SATA controller does not support legacy IDE mode or combination mode.

The PCH SATA controller interacts with an attached mass storage device through a register interface that is compatible with an SATA AHCI/RAID host adapter. The host software follows existing standards and conventions when accessing the register interface and follows standard command protocol conventions.
