Description

Embedded RAID
Controller

Selects between RAID, SCSI, or Off. The configurable options vary, depending on whether the optional ROMB is installed.

l

 

With the ROMB installed — Select either RAID Enabled, SCSI Enabled, or Off.

l

 

Without the ROMB installed — Select either SCSI or Off.

IDE Controller

Enables the integrated IDE CD controller. When set to Auto, each channel of the integrated IDE controller is enabled if IDE devices are
attached to the channel and an external IDE controller is not detected. Otherwise, the channel is disabled.

Diskette Controller
(Auto default)

Enables or disables the system's diskette drive controller. When Auto is selected, the system turns off the controller when necessary to
accommodate a controller card installed in an expansion slot. You can also configure the drive as read-only. When using the read-only
setting, the drive cannot be used to write to a disk.

USB Controller
(On with BIOS
support
default)

Enables or disables the system's USB ports. Options are On with BIOS support, On without BIOS support, or Off. Disabling the USB
ports makes system resources available for other devices.

Embedded Gb NIC
1 and NIC 2

Enables or disables the system's integrated NICs. Options are Enabled and Disabled.

NIC 1 PXE

Enables or disables the NIC 1 PXE support. Options are Enabled and Disabled. PXE support allows the system to boot from the
network. Changes take effect after the system reboots.

NIC 2 PXE

Enables or disables the NIC 2 PXE support. Options are Enabled and Disabled. PXE support allows the system to boot from the
network. Changes take effect after the system reboots.

MAC Address

Displays the MAC address for the integrated Gb NIC. This field does not have user-selectable settings.

Serial Port
(Auto default)

Serial port options are COM1, COM3, Auto, and Off.

When the serial port is set to Auto, the integrated port automatically maps to the next available port. The serial port attempts to use
COM1 first, and then COM3. If both addresses are in use for a specific port, the port is disabled.

If you set the serial port to Auto and add an expansion card with a port configured to the same designation, the system automatically
remaps the integrated port to the next available port designation that shares the same IRQ setting.

If you set the serial port to Off, the system automatically remaps the integrated port to the ERA/O controller card.

Speaker
(On default)

Sets the integrated speaker On or Off. A change to this option takes effect immediately (rebooting the system is not required).

Option

Description

(Off default)
