Computer Setup—Storage

NOTE:

Support for

specific

Computer Setup options may vary depending on the hardware

configuration.

Table 5-2

Computer Setup—Storage

Option

Description

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:

●

Hard Disk

: Size, model,

firmware

version, serial number.

Storage Options

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).

CAUTION:

SATA emulation changes may prevent access to existing hard drive data and degrade or corrupt

established volumes.

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.

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 self tests is

attached to the system.

Boot Order

Allows you to

configure:

UEFI Boot Sources:

Specify the order in which UEFI boot sources (such as a internal hard drive, USB hard drive,

USB optical drive, or 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.

UEFI boot sources always have precedence over legacy boot sources.

Legacy Boot Sources:

Specify the order in which legacy boot sources (such as a network interface card, internal

hard drive, or USB optical drive) 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:

You must disable Secure Boot before you can

configure

this option.

NOTE:

To drag a device to a preferred place, press

Enter

. To remove the device from consideration as a

bootable device, press

F5

.

You can use

F5

to disable individual boot items, as well as disable UEFI boot and/or legacy boot.

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

Esc

(to access the boot menu) and then

F9

(Boot Order), or only

F9

(skipping the boot menu) when the

monitor light turns green. 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.
