Table 3-3 Computer Setup-Storage (continued) 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: CD-ROM: No emulation options available. Hard Disk: Size, model, serial number, connector color, SMART, emulation type. ● None (prevents BIOS data accesses and disables it as a boot device) ● Hard Disk (treated as a hard disk) Translation Mode (ATA disks only) Lets you 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. CAUTION: Ordinarily, the translation mode selected automatically by the BIOS should not be changed. If the selected translation mode is not compatible with the translation mode that was active when the disk was partitioned and formatted, the data on the disk will be inaccessible. Default Values (ATA disks only) NOTE: This feature appears only when User translation mode is selected. 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.

Computer Setup—Storage (continued)
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:
CD-ROM
: No emulation options available.
Hard Disk
: Size, model, serial number, connector color, SMART, emulation type.
●
None (prevents BIOS data accesses and disables it as a boot device)
●
Hard Disk (treated as a hard disk)
Translation Mode
(ATA disks only)
Lets you 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.
CAUTION:
Ordinarily, the translation mode selected automatically by the BIOS should not be
changed. If the selected translation mode is not compatible with the translation mode that was
active when the disk was partitioned and formatted, the data on the disk will be inaccessible.
Default Values
(ATA disks only)
NOTE:
This feature appears only when User translation mode is selected.
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.
