MS-6580 ATX Mainboard Try Other Boot Devices Setting the option to Yes allows the system to try to boot from other devices if the system fails to boot from the 1st/2nd/3rd boot device. S.M.A.R.T. for Hard Disks This allows you to activate the S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis & Reporting Technology) capability for the hard disks.
