transactions. This field provides an interface to a chipset's Address Translation and
Service (ATS)
Protection Table to translate DMA addresses to host addresses. This option is set to
Enabled by default.
Adjacent Cache
Optimizes the system for applications that require high utilization of sequential
Line Prefetch
memory access. This option is set to Enabled by default. You can disable this
