Support Removable Disks as Fixed Disk
This option allows you to configure removable media drives sup-
ported by the BIOS. The default setting is Boot Device Only. The
following choices are available:
Boot Device Only – Only the removable media drive designated
as the boot device will be treated as a fixed disk.
All Devices – All removable media drives supported by the
BIOS will be treated as fixed disk drives.
Disabled – No removable drives will be treated as fixed
disks. Software drivers are needed for drives not controlled by
the BIOS.
Support for removable drives means only that the BIOS allows
for use of a removable drive as if it were a fixed disk drive; it does
not mean that the disk media can be removed during operation.
