What Is This Tool?

This converter translates the data transfer rate defined by IDE (PIO mode 4), a CPU-driven ATA/IDE timing mode, into the equivalent rate of a 28.8k modem connection, enabling comparisons between legacy storage device speeds and classic dial-up modem throughput.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the IDE (PIO mode 4) value you want to convert
  • Select the source unit as IDE (PIO mode 4)
  • Choose modem (28.8k) as the target unit
  • Click convert to see the corresponding modem speed
  • Use results to compare legacy device performance or estimate transfer times

Key Features

  • Converts between IDE (PIO mode 4) and modem (28.8k) data transfer rates
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick throughput comparisons
  • Supports benchmarking and performance estimation for legacy systems
  • Helps understand transfer speed equivalences between storage interfaces and modem links

Examples

  • 1 IDE (PIO mode 4) equals approximately 4611.11 modem (28.8k)
  • 2 IDE (PIO mode 4) convert to about 9222.22 modem (28.8k)

Common Use Cases

  • Configuring or diagnosing older ATA/IDE drives in legacy or embedded systems
  • Benchmarking performance of legacy storage devices against modem data rates
  • Ensuring compatibility in retro-computing or industrial environments using historical ATA timing modes
  • Estimating download times on classic dial-up connections
  • Comparing throughput limits for small data transfers over analog lines

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this converter primarily for theoretical speed comparison purposes
  • Consider variability in real-world performance due to CPU and signal conditions
  • Apply results for educational, benchmarking, or retro-computing analysis
  • Remember the conversion reflects maximum throughput values, not actual sustained speeds

Limitations

  • Conversion is theoretical, based on maximum throughput values
  • Actual speeds may differ due to CPU load, signal noise, and protocol inefficiencies
  • Does not account for overhead like error correction or handshaking delays

Frequently Asked Questions

What does IDE (PIO mode 4) represent?
IDE (PIO mode 4) is a CPU-controlled ATA/IDE data transfer timing mode with a maximum theoretical throughput of about 16.7 MB/s, defining timing and handshaking between host and drive.

What is modem (28.8k)?
Modem (28.8k) refers to a data transfer rate of approximately 28,800 bits per second, typical of classic 28.8k dial-up modem connections over analog phone lines.

Why convert between IDE (PIO mode 4) and modem (28.8k)?
Converting helps compare throughput of legacy storage device interfaces with classic dial-up modem speeds, useful in diagnostics, benchmarking, and retro-computing contexts.

Key Terminology

IDE (PIO mode 4)
A Programmed Input/Output timing mode where the CPU directly controls ATA/IDE device data transfers with defined timing and handshaking.
modem (28.8k)
An informal term for a data transfer speed of about 28,800 bits per second, typical of classic analog dial-up modems.
Throughput
The amount of data transferred over a connection or interface per unit time.
