Data Rate Register (DR Register) (Write base address + 4)
The Data Rate Register is used to set the transfer rate and write precompensation. The data rate of the
FDC is programmed by the CC REGISTER for PC-AT and PS/2 Model 30 and PS/2 mode, and not by
the DR REGISTER. The real data rate is determined by the most recent write to either of the DR
REGISTER or CC REGISTER.
