GSATA = gigabit SATA. Normally, GSATA has different colour SATA connector. Just leave it enable. Connect any storage device that supports gigabit SATA to it.

If your LiteOn DVD drive is IDE, then you need to enable DMA. Go to device manager > IDE ATA/Atapi controller > Primary IDE channel > change PIO only to DMA if available. Just google "How to enable DMA" for detail. SATA drives don't need to do this.

connect all your drives to blue sata ports ...... don't use the white ones .....

if nothing connected to the white sata ports and ide ports and esata ports, can disable the onboard gsata/ide controller and esata controller in bios .....

you are not using the white sata ports, right ?????

Onboard GSATA/IDE Ctrl and Onboard ESATA controller .....
change the Enabled to Disabled ?????
by right, it's not going to affect anything by disabling them though ..... but I like to disable features not in use .....
