3-10. IDE Hard Disk Detection
After you have installed the hard disk, in old systems, you had to know the hard disk
specifications, such as the number of cylinders, heads and sectors, and to enter the relevant
information into the hard disk information section. If the CMOS data was erased, and you
had forgotten the hard disk specifications, it was a great problem. But now, you can use this
option to auto detect the hard disk type and specifications, and the BIOS will automatically
detect all the relevant information and place them in the Hard Disk data section of the
Standard CMOS Setup Menu. In order to allow you to use your hard disk.
