## Introduction

AROS supports hard disks and optical drives attached to several interfaces:
* NVMe on the pci-e bus
* SATA aka Serial ATA or AHCI (IDE compatibility mode used in most cases)
* IDE (also known as ATA, PATA or Parallel ATA)
* USB
* SCSI limited

## PCI-e
### NVMe M.2 SSD (M key)

* Controller
* Cache (Separate DRAM for higher speed over cheaper SLC version)
* NAND (Main storage area with MLC, TLC or QLC versions of diminishing life expectancy)

## SATA

Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI), a programming interface for SATA host controllers. Platforms supporting AHCI may take advantage of performance features such as no master/slave designation for SATA devices — each device is treated as a master — and hardware-assisted native command queuing. AHCI may but not often also provides usability enhancements such as Hot-Plug (Desktop and Mobile Only). AHCI requires appropriate software support (e.g., an AHCI driver)
The issue with AHCI is that it's going to take a pile of test hardware just to figure out all the different bugs in all the motherboard chipsets and add-on PCI cards that 'kinda' implement AHCI. Not to mention Silicon Image, which took a very different approach from Intel's AHCI in their SATA controllers.
