When I am trying IDE controller, it offers me IDE Primary Master, 
Secondary Slave, Secondary Slave. Not sure if why there are 3 choices 
when I have only on DVD drive.
When I am trying SATA controller, it offers me SATA Port 1 ... SATA Port 
1 ... SATA Port 29 choices.

Also checkbox "Passthrough" never appears (like on this picture 
https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=31459#p168304), and it 
doesn't say "Host drive" near DVD, only says "Empty" because there is 
not choice to select the host drive.
