Proceed to the following for details on the parameters under each IDE drive
submenu.
Type
This item specifies the number of cylinders, heads, and sectors, and the size
of a particular IDE drive. If no information appears opposite the parameters,
there is no drive installed in that channel.
Hard Disk Block Mode
This function enhances disk performance depending on the hard disk in use.
BIOS automatically detects if your hard disk supports this feature.
Setting to Auto allows data transfer in blocks (multiple sectors) to increase the
data transfer rate. If your system does not boot after setting this parameter to
Auto, change the setting to Disabled. The default setting for this parameter is
Auto.
Advanced PIO Mode
The advanced PIO mode feature improves system performance by allowing
the use of faster hard disk drives. If your hard disk supports this feature, you
may set this parameter to Auto (default), Mode 0, Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3, or
Mode 4 depending on the hard disk requirements. See the documentation that
came with the hard disk.
If your hard disk does not support this function, set this parameter to Disabled.
Hard Disk Size > 528MB
This enhanced IDE feature works only under DOS and Windows
environments. If set to Auto, which is the default, BIOS allows you to use a
hard disk with a capacity of more than 528MB. This is made possible through
the Logical block address (LBA) mode translation. You may be required to set
this parameter to Disabled if you use other operating systems.
To prevent data loss, set this parameter to Auto if you are using a hard disk
with more than 528MB capacity that was previously configured through the
LBA mode. If you use a hard disk configured through the user-specific
cylinder-head-sector (CHS) mode, set this parameter to Disabled.
Hard Disk 32-bit Access
Setting this parameter to Enabled improves system performance by allowing
the use of the 32-bit hard disk access. This enhanced IDE feature only works
under DOS, Windows 3.x, Windows 98, and Novell NetWare. If your software
does not support this function, set this parameter to Disabled. The default
setting is Enabled.
