Table 6-2Computer Setup—Storage (continued)

Storage Options

eSATA Port

 

Allows you to set a SATA port as an eSATA port for use with an external drive. Default is enabled.

 

This setting affects only the port with the black connector, labeled as eSATA on the system board.

 

This port should have the eSATA back panel connector attached to use eSATA drives. For more

 

information, see the eSATA white paper at www.hp.com.

 

SATA Emulation

 

Allows you to choose how the SATA controller and devices are accessed by the operating system.

 

There are three supported options: IDE, RAID, 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 three options. Operating systems usually

 

do not require additional driver support in IDE mode.

 

RAID - Allows DOS and boot access to RAID volumes. Use this mode with the RAID device driver

 

loaded in the operating system to take advantage of RAID features.

 

AHCI (default option) - Allows operating systems with AHCI device drivers loaded to take

 

advantage of more advanced features of the SATA controller.

 

NOTE: The RAID/AHCI device driver must be installed prior to attempting to boot from a RAID/

 

AHCI volume. If you attempt to boot from a RAID/AHCI volume without the required device driver

 

installed, the system will crash (blue screen). RAID volumes may become corrupted if they are

 

booted to after disabling RAID.

 

Removable Media Boot

 

Enables/disables ability to boot the system from removable media. Default is enabled.

 

Max eSATA Speed

 

Allows you to choose 1.5 Gbps or 3.0 Gpbs as the maximum eSATA speed. By default, the speed

 

is limited to 1.5 Gbps for maximum reliability.

 

CAUTION: Consult your eSATA drive and cable manufacturer before enabling 3.0 Gpbs speed.

 

Some drive and cable combinations may not run reliably at 3.0 Gpbs.
