This Drive Details window shows some Extra Drive Information, including NCQ and SATA Link Speed support, and the SMART data for the drive. Extra Drive Information NCQ Supported and NCQ Enabled. Some drives support NCQ (Native Command Queuing), which can result in increased performance for some applications, usually server-type applications. In order to make use of Native Command Queuing, the feature must be enabled at both the drive and the controller. Not all drives support NCQ. Only 9550SX and 9590SE controllers support NCQ. The NCQ values in this window indicate whether the feature is supported and enabled at the drive. At the controller level, queuing is enabled or disabled for all drives in a unit on the Controller Settings Page. SATA Link Supported and SATA Link Enabled.
