3.2.3 Hard Disks Setting
The BIOS supports Dual-Channel PIO and PCI Bus Master IDE ports.
Each port supports one master and one slave hard drive. You can use ¡Õ
PageUp¡Ö or ¡ÕPageDown¡Ö key to change hard drive type.
Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table.
The hard disk will not work properly if you enter improper information
for this category. If your hard disk drive type is not matched or listed, you
can use Type “User” to define your own drive type manually. If you select
Type “User”, you will need to know the information listed below. Enter
the information directly from the keyboard and press <Enter>. This
information should be included in the documentation from your hard disk
vendor or the system manufacturer. Incorrect setting may result in boot up
error or system hang.
We recommend that you select Type "AUTO" for all drives. The BIOS
will auto-detect the hard disk drive and CD-ROM drive at the POST stage
and showing the IDE for HDD & CD-ROM Drive.
If the controller of HDD interface is ESDI, the selection shall be “Type 1”.
If the controller of HDD interface is SCSI, the selection shall be “None”.
If a hard disk has not been installed select NONE and press <Enter>.
