Disks manager reports DMA is off but hdparm says on

[ChristofferS]

Computer-> Disks:

For my harddisk there is no check mark in "Enable DMA", but hdparm says otherwise:

"sudo hdparm -d /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 using_dma = 1 (on)
"

Also, if I set a check mark for my CD ROM (which Disks Manager correctly reports
as not using DMA) nothing happens (ie. DMA is not turned on).
