Hard Disk Type
The BIOS supports various types for user settings, The BIOS supports <Pri Master>, <Pri
Slave>, so the user can install up to two hard disks. For the master and slave
jumpers, please refer to the hard disk’s installation descriptions and the hard disk
jumper settings.
You can select <AUTO> under the <TYPE> and <MODE> fields. This will enable auto
detection of your IDE drives during boot up. This will allow you to change your hard
drives (with the power off) and then power on without having to reconfigure your
hard drive type. If you use older hard disk drives, which do not support this feature,
then you must configure the hard disk drive in the standard method as described
above by the <USER> option.
PIO MODE
PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of
commands to affect a transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell
the controller what it wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the
complete task by them. This is simpler and more efficient (and faster). Your system
supports five modes, numbered from 0 to 4, which primarily differ in timing. When
Auto is selected, the BIOS will select the best available mode.
BLOCK (Multi-Sector Transfer)
This option allows your hard disk controller to use the fast block mode to transfer
data to and from your hard disk drive (HDD).
S.M.A.R.T
This field is used to activate the S.M.A.R.T (System Management and Reporting
Technologies) function for S.M.A.R.T HDD drives. This function requires an
application that can give S.M.A.R.T message.
32 Bit Data Transfer
This option sets the 32-bit data transfer option. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default
setting is enabled.
Hard Disk Write Protect
Set this option to protect the hard disk drive from being overwritten. The Optimal
and Fail-Safe default setting is disabled.
Available Options: Disabled, Enabled
Default setting: Disable
IDE Detect Time Out (Sec.)
Set this option to stop the AMIBIOS from searching for IDE devices within the
specified number of seconds. Basically, this allows you to fine-tune the settings to
allow for faster boot times. Adjust this setting until a suitable timing that can detect
all IDE disk drives attached is found.
Available Options: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35
Default setting: 35
