The BIOS automatically detects the connected IDE devices. There is a

separate sub-menu for each IDE device. Select a device item, then press

to display the IDE device information.

The BIOS automatically detects the values opposite the dimmed items

(Device, Vendor, Size, LBA Mode, Block Mode, PIO Mode, Async DMA, Ultra

DMA, and SMART monitoring). These values are not user-configurable.

These items show N/A if no IDE device is installed in the system.
