It then instructs the DMA hardware to begin the transfer. When the transfer is complete, the device interrupts the CPU. Scatter-gather or vectored I/O DMA allows the transfer of data to and from multiple memory areas in a single DMA transaction. It is equivalent to the chaining together of multiple simple DMA requests.
The Word DMA (WDMA) interface is a method for transferring data between a computer (through an Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) controller) and an ATA device; it was the fastest method until Ultra Direct Memory Access (UDMA) was implemented.
The Ultra DMA (Ultra Direct Memory Access, UDMA) modes are the fastest methods used to transfer data through the ATA hard disk interface, usually between a computer and an ATA device. UDMA succeeded Single / Multiword DMA as the interface of choice between ATA devices and the computer.
Ewers was listed as "probable" on Texas' injury report on Friday. "Sources have told me that he is dealing with a high ankle sprain and that he is not going to be 100% tonight," Thamel said Saturday.
The hits keep on coming for Texas. UT head coach Steve Sarkisian announced Monday that the team lost star running back Bijan Robinson to a season-ending injury during Saturday’s loss to Kansas. ...

In contrast, in direct memory access (DMA) operations, the CPU is uninvolved in the data transfer. The term can refer to either memory-mapped I/O (MMIO) or port-mapped I/O (PMIO). PMIO refers to transfers using a special address space outside of normal memory, usually accessed with dedicated instructions, such as IN and OUT in x86 architectures.
In the case of DMA, the DMA controller and the device are given exclusive access to the bus without interruption; the CPU is also freed from handling device interrupts. The actual manner in which burst modes work varies from one type of device to another; however, devices that have some sort of a standard burst mode include the following:
