There's really nothing to be tuned. If NCQ is enabled for your drive, it
will be printed in dmesg after the lba48 flag, such as:

ata1: dev 0 ATA, max UDMA/133, 488281250 sectors lba48 ncq

If you don't see NCQ there, your drive/controller doesn't support it.
Likewise you will have a queueing depth of > 1 if NCQ is enabled, check
/sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth to see what the configured queueing
depth is for that device.

 
Hello again,

the queue_depth of 30 is okay? On boot the CFQ scheduler tells:

      cfq: depth 4 reached, tagging now on

This only appears with AHCI enabled what does that mean?

Also a question which options can be set in queue_type?

Best regard and thanks for help
