Setup and Operation 2-21
IDE Adapter 0 configures the primary IDE/PCI port (primary channel), IDE Adapter 1 config-
ures the secondary IDE port.
Each IDE Adapter parameter has a right-pointing arrow to the left of it. Selecting the option dis-
plays IDE hard disk parameters. Select an IDE Adapter option and set parameters for each hard
disk separately.
Use Table Section 2-3 to configure the hard disk. If the IDE hard disk features auto IDE type
detection, select the Autotype Fixed Disk parameter. The system then automatically detects the
hard disk type and sets the remaining parameters.
CAUTION:
Use Table Section 2-3 only when the
system can not auto detect any installed optional
drive. An incorrect setting can cause the system to
malfunction and not be able to read the drive.
