Storage Options
ENWW
Removable Media Boot
Enables/disables ability to boot the system from removable media.
BIOS DMA Data Transfers
Allows you to control how BIOS disk I/O requests are serviced. When Enable is selected, the BIOS
will service ATA disk read and write requests with DMA data transfers. When Disable is selected,
the BIOS will service ATA disk read and write requests with PIO data transfers.
SATA Emulation
Allows you to choose how the SATA controller and devices are accessed by the operating system.
There are up to two supported options: IDE and RAID.
IDE is the default option. Use this option for "normal" (non-RAID) configurations.
Select the RAID option to enable DOS and boot accesses to RAID volumes. Use this option for RAID
configurations under Windows 2000, XP, or Vista with the appropriate RAID device driver.
NOTE: The RAID device driver must be installed prior to attempting to boot from a RAID volume.
If you attempt to boot from a RAID volume without the required device driver installed, the system
will crash (blue screen). Also, do not select the RAID option while the DriveLock feature is enabled
on any attached hard drives. Doing so will cause the DriveLocked drives to remain locked and
inaccessible during subsequent reboots until another SATA Emulation mode is selected.
For more information on RAID, see Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) on dc7700 and
dx7300 Business Desktops Using Intel Matrix Storage Manager at http://www.hp.com/support.
