4.3.1 Primary and Secondary Master/Slave

Type [Auto]

Select [Auto] to automatically detect an IDE hard disk drive. If automatic
detection is successful, Setup automatically fills in the correct values for the
remaining fields on this sub-menu. If automatic detection fails, this may be
because the hard disk drive is too old or too new. If the hard disk was already
formatted on an older system, Setup may detect incorrect parameters. In
these cases, select [User Type HDD] to manually enter the IDE hard disk
drive parameters. Refer to the next section for details.

CAUTION!

Before attempting to configure a hard disk drive, make sure

you have the correct configuration information supplied by the drive
manufacturer. Incorrect settings may cause the system to fail to recognize
the installed hard disk.
