LBA and Large modes are new specifications which may not be fully
supported by all operating systems. An example of which is the current
version of UNIX System (R3.2.4) which is still unable to support the LBA
function. Therefore, determine the specifications of your hard disk drive
and operating system before selecting the drive's mode.
After pressing the <Enter> key on this item of the main menu, the display screen
