If you disable the SAS/SATA controller and no SAS/SATA adapter is installed, the server will have no SAS/SATA capability. If you disable the integrated Ethernet controller and no Ethernet adapter is installed, the server will have no Ethernet capability. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. - Serial Port 1 Select this choice to set up serial port 1. - Serial Port 2 Select this choice to set up serial port 2. - Parallel Port Setup Select this choice to set up the parallel port and to adjust the parallel port resources and features. - Remote Console Redirection Select this choice to enable and configure serial remote video and keyboard redirection. - Internal Floppy Support Select this choice to disable or enable the diskette drive. - SATA Programming Interface Select this choice to disable, enable, or configure the Serial ATA.
