3-9. IDE HDD Auto Detection
The "IDE HDD AUTO DETECTION" utility is a very useful tool
especially when you do not know which kind of hard disk type
you are using. You can use this utility to detect the correc
disk type installed in the system automatically or you can set
hard disk type to auto in the standard CMOS setup. You don't
need the

utility. The BIOS will
auto-detect the hard disk size and model on display during
post.
