Primary HDDs
The onboard IDE connectors provide Primary channels for connecting up to four IDE hard disks or other IDE
devices. Each channel can support up to two hard disks; the first is the “Master” and the second is the “Slave”.
To enter the specifications for a hard disk drive, you must select first a “Type”. There are 45 predefined types
and 4 user definable types are for Enhanced IDE BIOS. Type 1 to 45 is predefined. Type “User” is user-definable.
For the Primary Master/Slave as well as Secondary Master/Slave, you can select “Auto” under the TYPE and
MODE fields. This will enable auto detection of your IDE drives and CD-ROM drive during POST.
Press <PgUp>/<PgDn> to select a numbered hard disk type or type the number and press the <Enter> key. The
hard disk will not work properly if you enter incorrect information for this field. If your hard disk drive type is not
matched or listed, you can use Type User to define your own drive type manually. If you select Type User, the
related information has to be entered to the following items.
CYLINDER: Number of cylinders
HEAD: Number of read/write heads
PRECOMP: Write precompensation
LANDING ZONE: Landing zone
SECTOR: Number of sectors
MODE (for IDE HDD only): Auto

NOTE: The specifications of your drive must match with the drive table. The hard disk will not work properly
if you enter incorrect information in these fields. If your hard disk drive type is not matched or listed,
you can use Type User to define your own drive type manually.
