Table 2-3 Computer Setup-Storage (continued) 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. BIOS DMA Data Transfers Allows you to control how BIOS disk I/O requests are serviced. When Enable is selected, the BIOS will service ATA disk read and write requests with DMA data transfers. When Disable is selected, the BIOS will service ATA disk read and write requests with PIO data transfers. SATA Emulation Allows you to choose how the SATA controller and devices are accessed by the operating system. There are two supported options: Separate IDE Controller and Combined IDE Controller. Separate IDE Controller is the default option. Use this option for "normal" (non-AHCI) configurations. IDE Controller Allows you to enable/disable the IDE Controller. Primary SATA Controller Allows you to enable/disable the Primary SATA Controller. 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 selftests is attached to the system. Boot Order Allows you to: ● Specify the order in which attached devices (such as a USB flash media device, hard drive, optical drive, or Broadcom Ethernet Controller) 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 F9 when the blue HP logo screen is displayed. 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. 8 Chapter 2 Computer Setup (F10) Utility
