Match case Limit results 1 per page

Allows you to specify the parameters (logical cylinders, heads, and sectors per track) used by the

BIOS to translate disk I/O requests (from the operating system or an application) into terms the hard

drive can accept. Logical cylinders may not exceed 1024. The number of heads may not exceed

256. The number of sectors per track may not exceed 63. These fields are only visible and

changeable when the drive translation mode is set to User.

SATA Default Values

Allows you to specify the default values for the Multisector Transfers, Transfer Mode, and Translation

Mode for ATA devices.

Storage Options

Removable Media Boot

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

Legacy Diskette Write

Enables/disables ability to write data to legacy diskettes.

NOTE:

After saving changes to Removable Media Write, the computer will restart. Turn the

computer off, then on, manually.

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:

●

Specify the order in which attached devices (such as a USB flash media device, diskette drive,

hard drive, optical drive, or network interface card) 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:

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

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.
