Setting Advanced IDE Drive Options
When you select the Adv
HDD
icon from the Setup window,
you see the Advanced HDD Setup window. Advanced HDD
Setup lets you define the types of IDE drives that are connected
to the primary and secondary IDE interfaces in your system.
The Advanced HDD Setup window displays the parameters
that were detected by auto detection. (See “Detecting Your
Hard Disk Drive” on page 2-12 for instructions on using the
DetectMaster and DetectSlave functions.) You can override
these settings by following the steps below.
