Hi Andre.

TCQ = Tank Commander's Quarters
I've no idea what it stands for in Linux-Kernel. It must mean something important though, as it comes up so regularly.
> FPDMA First Party Direct Memory Access > > SATA erm ... obvious
SATA = Serial ATA PATA = Parallel ATA ATAPI = ATA Programming Interface
Question: What's ATA ??? I've no idea.
> SCSI erm ... obvious
SCSI = Small Computer Systems Interface IDE = Integrated Drive Electronics MFM = Modified Frequency Modulation (ST-506) RLL = Run Length Limited (ST-506)
All forms of hard disk interface - that I do know.
ST-506 = Seagate Technology model 506 hard drive (which set the MFM and RLL standards)
