CONFIG_SATA_AHCI
â This option enables support for AHCI Serial ATA. â
â â
â If unsure, say N.

CONFIG_ATA_SFF: â
â â
â This option adds support for ATA controllers with SFF â
â compliant or similar programming interface. â
â â
â SFF is the legacy IDE interface that has been around since â
â the dawn of time. Almost all PATA controllers have an â
â SFF interface. Many SATA controllers have an SFF interface â
â when configured into a legacy compatibility mode. â
â â
â For users with exclusively modern controllers like AHCI, â
â Silicon Image 3124, or Marvell 6440, you may choose to â
â disable this unneeded SFF support.

to the CONFIG_SATA_AHCI option.
