Nope, that did not answer my query. You gave some performance benchmarks
but my question was not about the speed of anything. The question is
(once again):
How do you know that these modes are really supported?
You are marking the *host* as supporting these modes. Please provide
information that host supports them *really*, not by experimenting "oh,
it seems to work now, maybe it will work always".
Usually vendors, if their products implement some kind of
specification/protocol, they mark the products as "compatible with XYZ" etc.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
