NOTE: Support for specific Computer Setup options may vary depending on the hardware configuration.

Table A-2Computer Setup—Storage

Option	Description
Device	Lists all installed BIOS-controlled storage devices.
Configuration	When a device is selected, detailed information and options are displayed. The following options
	may be presented:
	● Hard Disk: Size, model, firmware version, serial number.
	● CD-ROM: Model, firmware version, serial number.
Storage Options	SATA Emulation
	Allows you to choose how the SATA controller and devices are accessed by the operating system.
	There are three supported options: IDE and AHCI (default).
	CAUTION: SATA emulation changes may prevent access to existing hard drive data and
	degrade or corrupt established volumes.
	IDE - This is the most backwards-compatible setting of the options. Operating systems usually do not
	require additional driver support in IDE mode.
	AHCI (default option) - Allows operating systems with AHCI device drivers loaded to take
	advantage of more advanced features of the SATA controller.
