Hi

Yes it all looks fine to me apart from the Native IDE mode needs enabling. Any of the newer OSes work better with it enabled.

It is just about the way the drive is accessed. The Native IDE mode allows the OS to take more control I believe. I am sure if you google it you would get a  much better explanation from Wiki or somewhere. ;)
