Question Anybody know what these audio options are in the bios?

[gijoe50000]

So, I was looking through the bios on my Gigabyte X670E Aorus Master (Bios: 24c) and there are these audio options for the integrated audio controller:

Configuration options:
[HDA(3SDI) + PDM(2CH)]
[HDA (1SDI)+ PDM(6CH)]
[HDA(1SDI) + SW0(1MDATA) + PDM(2CH)]
[SW0(4MDATA) +PDM(6CH)]
[SW0(4MDATA) + SW1(1MDATA) + PDM(2CH)]

Google seems to be clueless, although I'd assume:
HDA = High Definition Audio
PDM = Pulse Density Modulation?
And 2CH and 6CH, I assume, are 2 & 6 channel.

But does anyone know what these other ones are:
1SDI & 3SDI?
SW0 and SW1?
1MDATA and 4MDATA?

The bios manual is of course pretty useless, and Google only shows a few search results that link to other bios manuals!

BIOS version for your motherboard?

I didn't bother being that specific because these values aren't specific to my motherboard (Gigabyte X670E Aorus Master Bios: 24c), because various other boards have these audio options too, at the very least the they're on a lot of ASUS 600 series boards as well.

But yea, I should probably update my sig as well..
