HDD S.M.A.R.T Capability
(Using this feature may decrease system performance)
You may “enable” this option if your Hard Drive supports the S.M.A.R.T. technol-
ogy (Self Monitoring Analysis Reporting Technology) feature. S.M.A.R.T. will
monitor and report your Hard Drive health status. Ask your Hard Drive Vendor
for further information.

These fields allow you to change the Video BIOS location from ROM to RAM. In-
formation access is faster through RAM than ROM. Therefore when you enable
this option you will enhance your system performance.
