Mode Setting For Hard Disk Drives Larger Than 528MB
The last of the specification entries. Mode, requires additional
explanation. The Mode settings are for IDE hard disks only. You can
ignore this item for MFM and ESDI drives. There are three entries you
can select from in the Mode field, "Normal", "Large" and "LBA".
Set Mode to the Normal setting for IDE hard disk drives smaller
than 528MB. Use the LBA setting for drives over 528MB that use Logi
cal Block Addressing mode to allow larger IDE hard disks. The Large
setting is for drives over 528MB that do not use the LBA mode. This
type of drive can only be used with MS-DOS and is uncommon. The
majority of IDE drives over 528MB use the LBA mode.
Note:
Entering incorrect drive specifications will result in a hard
disk drive functioning improperly or not at all.
