Computer Setup-Storage NOTE: Support for specific Computer Setup options may vary depending on the hardware configuration. Table 3-3 Computer Setup-Storage Option Device Configuration Storage Options Description 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: Size, model, firmware version, serial number. Emulation type has the following choices: ● None (prevents BIOS data accesses and disables it as a boot device) ● Hard Disk (treated as a hard disk) CD-ROM: Model, firmware version, serial number. SATA Emulation Allows you to choose how the SATA controller and devices are accessed by the operating system. There are two supported options: IDE and AHCI (default). IDE - This is the most backwards-compatible setting of the three options. Operating systems usually do not require additional driver support in IDE mode. AHCI (default option) - Allows operating systems with AHCI device drivers loaded to take advantage of more advanced features of the SATA controller. NOTE: The RAID/AHCI device driver must be installed prior to attempting to boot from a RAID/ AHCI volume. If you attempt to boot from a RAID/AHCI volume without the required device driver installed, the system will crash (blue screen). RAID volumes may become corrupted if they are booted to after disabling RAID. 10 Chapter 3 Computer Setup (F10) Utility
