IDE Adapter Sub-Menus
There are a total of four IDE adapter sub-menus for the primary and secondary hard
disk controllers, each having a master and slave drive menu. The EPC-9 uses an
internal (primary) hard disk that is controlled by the settings for IDE Adapter 0
Master. In addition, a secondary controller connector is provided, capable of
supporting two external IDE hard disks. To see or reconfigure the detailed
characteristics of the primary hard disk, select the IDE Adapter 0 Master item from
the Main BIOS Setup. The IDE Adapter 0 Master Sub-Menu is shown below, in
Figure 3-3:
