What Is This Tool?

This unit converter allows you to transform data transfer rates expressed in megabytes per second (SI definition) to IDE (DMA mode 2) units. It is designed for users working with legacy Parallel ATA storage devices, firmware, and system diagnostics.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in megabyte/second (SI def.) you want to convert
  • Select megabyte/second (SI def.) as the input unit and IDE (DMA mode 2) as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent value in IDE (DMA mode 2)
  • Review the result to understand the legacy transfer mode equivalent
  • Use the output to aid in system diagnostics or performance evaluation

Key Features

  • Converts data transfer rates from megabyte/second (SI def.) to IDE (DMA mode 2)
  • Supports comparison of modern throughput measurements with legacy IDE transfer modes
  • Useful for diagnostics, performance tuning, and compatibility checks on PATA/IDE devices
  • Browser-based and easy-to-use with quick calculation formula
  • Includes examples for clarity in conversions

Examples

  • 10 Megabyte/second (SI def.) equals approximately 0.6024 IDE (DMA mode 2)
  • 50 Megabyte/second (SI def.) equals approximately 3.0120 IDE (DMA mode 2)

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting sequential read/write speeds of storage devices using megabyte/second (SI def.) units
  • Configuring or diagnosing legacy PATA/IDE drives to ensure DMA mode usage
  • Firmware and device driver transfer mode negotiations on older hardware
  • Benchmarking and troubleshooting legacy storage interfaces
  • Interpreting modern data transfer rates in the context of legacy IDE system performance

Tips & Best Practices

  • Confirm the input value is in megabyte/second (SI def.) for accurate conversion
  • Use this conversion primarily for legacy system diagnostics and performance comparisons
  • Cross-check converted values with empirical benchmarks when possible
  • Understand the limitations of IDE (DMA mode 2) as a legacy and approximate unit
  • Apply the conversion for firmware development or hardware configuration tasks involving PATA/IDE

Limitations

  • IDE (DMA mode 2) is a legacy hardware transfer mode, not a standard data transfer rate measurement
  • Conversions are approximate and intended for contexts involving legacy PATA/IDE devices
  • Accuracy may vary due to hardware-specific performance factors and empirical differences
  • Not applicable for modern or non-IDE data transfer evaluations

Frequently Asked Questions

What does megabyte/second (SI def.) represent?
It represents a data transfer rate of 1,000,000 bytes per second, using decimal SI units.

What is IDE (DMA mode 2)?
It is a Parallel ATA transfer mode allowing data movement with reduced CPU usage, part of legacy PATA/IDE standards.

Why convert from megabyte/second to IDE (DMA mode 2)?
To compare modern transfer speeds with legacy hardware modes for diagnostics and performance tuning.

Key Terminology

Megabyte/second (SI def.)
A data transfer rate equal to 1,000,000 bytes transferred each second using decimal SI units.
IDE (DMA mode 2)
A legacy PATA transfer mode that enables direct memory access with reduced CPU load, enhancing throughput compared to older PIO modes.
PATA/IDE
An older interface standard for connecting storage devices, supporting transfer modes like DMA for improved data movement.
