undetected.

Access Mode [Auto]
The Access Mode option can only be configured if the BIOS configuration option is set to
either Manual or Auto .. Use the Access Mode option to determine the hard disk BIOS
translation modes. Most systems now use hard drives with large capacities and therefore
either the LBA translation mode or auto mode should be selected.
CHS Select this mode if the HDD capacity is less than
504MB.
LBA Select this mode if the HDD capacity is more than
8.4GB.
Large This mode is an extended ECHS mode and while it
supports HDDs larger than 504MB, it is not
recommended.
Auto (Default) If you are unsure of what access mode to set, select this
option.

system.
