Only one HD can use DMA?

Hello,

I have a computer running Windows 98. It had a 20gb HD
in it, but as ive started to do some video editing with
my DVD burner, I thought it might be wise to get a little
more disk space. I got the specs for my current 20GB and
found a 60GB HD that is the same make rpm, all that
jazz. The 20GB is set to master, the 60 to slave. Only
one of them will set to DMA though, where the other then
goes to PIO? Im not to sure what PIO is, but Id like
both to go to DMA.. Is this possible?

I have run into the same problem, but it still seems to work ok.
