Computer Setup-Storage Table 2-3 Computer Setup-Storage Option Description Device Configuration Lists all installed BIOS-controlled storage devices. When a device is selected, detailed information and options are displayed. The following options may be presented. Hard Disk SATA 0 ● Allows you to view the size, model, firmware, serial number, and SATA connector color for the hard drive. ● Emulation Type-Can be set to None (prevents BIOS data accesses and disables it as a boot device) or Hard Disk (treated as hard disk). ● Multisector Transfers (ATA disks only)-Specifies how many sectors are transferred per multisector PIO operation. Options (subject to device capabilities) are Disabled, 8, and 16. ● Translation Mode (ATA disks only)-Allows you to select the translation mode to be used for the device. This enables the BIOS to access disks partitioned and formatted on other systems and may be necessary for users of older versions of UNIX (e.g., SCO UNIX version 3.2). Options are Automatic, Bit Shift, LBA Assisted, User, and Off. NOTE: If User is selected for the Translation Mode, you can 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. CD-ROM SATA 1 Allows you to view the model, firmware, serial number, and SATA connector color for the optical drive. Default Values IDE/SATA Allows you to specify the default values for the Multisector Transfers, Transfer Mode, and Translation Mode for ATA devices. Computer Setup (F10) Utilities 7
