The NIC does not have an assigned drive letter.

NOTE: An optical drive (such as a CD-ROM drive) can boot either as drive A or drive C, depending on the format of the boot CD.

The following list describes the factory setting for boot order in which drive letters A and C are assigned when MultiBoot is disabled. (The actual order varies by configuration.)

Boot order for drive A boot devices:

1.Optical drive in an optional docking device or in an optional external MultiBay that contains a disc formatted as drive A

2.Optical drive in the internal MultiBay (select models only) that contains a disc formatted as drive A

3.Diskette drive in an optional docking device or in an optional external MultiBay

Boot order for drive C boot devices:

1.Optical drive in an optional docking device or in an optional external MultiBay that contains a disc formatted as drive C

2.Optical drive in the internal MultiBay (select models only) that contains a disc formatted as drive C

3.Hard drive in the computer hard drive bay

4.Hard drive in an optional docking device or in an optional external MultiBay

NOTE: Because no drive letter is associated with the NIC, changing the boot order of a NIC does not affect the drive letters of the other devices.
