You don't. DMA, NCQ, and the like are enabled automatically if they |
| 8 |
are supported by the driver, chipset, and drive. hdparm -tT can still |

be used to test the throughput however. |

The interface is through the SCSI subsystem, but it could also be |
| 15 |
called an IDE drive, since the definition of IDE is "Integrated Drive |
| 16 |
Electronics", and these drives definitely have most of their smarts |
| 17 |
built-in. |
