The BIOS can automatically detect the specifications and optimal operating mode of almost all IDE hard drives. When you select type AUTO for a hard drive, the BIOS detect its specifications during POST, every time system boots.

If you do not want to select drive type AUTO, other methods of selecting drive type are available:

1.Match the specifications of your installed IDE hard drive(s) with the preprogrammed values for hard drive types 1 through 45.

2.Select USER and enter values into each drive parameter field.

3.Use the IDE HDD AUTO DETECTION function in Setup.

Type: The BIOS contains a table of pre-defined drive types. Each defined drive type has a specified number of cylinders, number of heads, write precompensation factor, landing zone, and num- ber of sectors. Drives whose specifications do not accommodate any predefine type are classified as type USER.

oCyls: number of cylinders. o Head: number of heads.
