Configuration
(continued)
Default Values IDE/SATA
If selected, this option allows you to specify the default values for the
Multisector Transfers, Transfer Mode, and Translation Mode for ATA
devices.
Multisector Transfers
(ATA disks only)
Specifies how many sectors are transferred per multi-sector
PIO operation. Options (subject to device capabilities) are
Disabled, 8, and 16.
Transfer Mode
(IDE devices only)
Specifies the active data transfer mode. Options (subject to
device capabilities) are PIO 0, Max PIO, Enhanced DMA,
Ultra DMA 0, and Max UDMA.
Translation Mode
(ATA disks only)
Lets you select the translation mode to be used for the device.
This enables the BIOS to access disks partitioned and
formatted on other systems and may be necessary for users of
older versions of UNIX (e.g., SCO UNIX version 3.2).
Options are Automatic, Bit-Shift, LBA Assisted, User, and
None
Ä
CAUTION:
Ordinarily, the translation mode selected
automatically by the BIOS should not be changed. If the
selected translation mode is not compatible with the
translation mode that was active when the disk was
partitioned and formatted, the data on the disk will be
inaccessible.
Translation Parameters
(ATA disks only)
✎
This feature appears only when User translation mode is
selected.
Allows you to specify the parameters (logical cylinders,
heads, and sectors per track) used by the BIOS to translate
disk I/O requests (from the operating system or an
application) into terms the hard drive can accept. Logical
cylinders may not exceed 1024. The number of heads may
not exceed 256. The number of sectors per track may not
exceed 63. These fields are only visible and changeable
when the drive translation mode is set to User.
Storage Options
Removable Media Boot
Enables/disables ability to boot the system from removable media.
Legacy Diskette Write
Enables/disables ability to write data to legacy diskettes.
✎
After saving changes to Removable Media Write, the computer
