Item Help
If you are setting up a new hard disk drive that supports LBA mode,
more than one line will appear in the parameter box. Choose the line
that lists LBA for an LBA drive.
IDE Channel 0/1 Master/Slave (Auto)
Leave this item at Auto to enable the system to automatically detect and configure
IDE devices on the channel. If it fails to find a device, change the value to Manual
and then manually configure the drive by entering the characteristics of the drive
in the items described below.
Refer to your drive’s documentation or look on the drive casing if you need to
obtain this information. If no device is installed, change the value to None.
Before attempting to configure a hard disk drive, ensure that you have
the configuration information supplied by the manufacturer of your
hard drive. Incorrect settings can result in your system not recognizing
the installed hard disk.
Access Mode (Auto)
This item defines ways that can be used to access IDE hard disks such as LBA
(Large Block Addressing). Leave this value at Auto and the system will automatically
decide the fastest way to access the hard disk drive.
