Table 3-3 Computer Setup—Storage (continued)
DPS Self-Test Allows you to execute self-tests on ATA hard drives capable of performing the Drive Protection
System (DPS) self-tests.
NOTE: This selection will only appear when at least one drive capable of performing the DPS
self-tests is attached to the system.
Boot Order Allows you to:
●
EFI Boot Sources: Specify the order in which EFI boot sources (such as a internal hard
drive, USB hard drive, USB optical drive, or internal optical drive) are checked for a bootable
operating system image. Each device on the list may be individually excluded from or
included for consideration as a bootable operating system source.
EFI boot sources always have precedence over legacy boot sources.
● Legacy Boot Sources: Specify the order in which legacy boot sources (such as a network
interface card, internal hard drive, USB optical drive, or internal optical drive) are checked for
a bootable operating system image. Each device on the list may be individually excluded
from or included for consideration as a bootable operating system source.
Specify the order of attached hard drives. The first hard drive in the order will have priority in
the boot sequence and will be recognized as drive C (if any devices are attached).
NOTE: To drag a device to a preferred place, press Enter. To remove the device from
consideration as a bootable device, press F5.
You can use F5 to disable individual boot items, as well as disable EFI boot and/or legacy boot.
NOTE: MS-DOS drive lettering assignments may not apply after a non-MS-DOS operating
system has started.
Shortcut to Temporarily Override Boot Order
To boot one time from a device other than the default device specified in Boot Order, restart the
computer and press Esc (to access the boot menu) and then F9 (Boot Order), or only F9 (skipping
the boot menu) when the monitor light turns green. After POST is completed, a list of bootable
devices is displayed. Use the arrow keys to select the preferred bootable device and press Enter.
The computer then boots from the selected non-default device for this one time.
