Legacy/Native IDE mode is designed for compatibility with some old OS without AHCI driver but looses SATAII/AHCI features such as NCQ.

is this really the right thing? You're overriding a user chosen
configuration here.... while that might be justifiable.. it's probably a
good idea to at least provide a safety-valve for this one. The user
might have made that selection very deliberately.
