Hard Disks

The BIOS supports up to four IDE drives. This section does not show information about other IDE devices, such as a CD-ROM drive, or about other hard drive types, such as SCSI drives.

NOTE : recommend that you select type AUTO for all drives.

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 detects its specifications during POST, every time the system boots. If you do not want to select drive type AUTO, other methods of selecting the drive type are available:

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