This setting is used to specify whether the S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting
Technology) function is being used or not. If the connection device is not compatible with ATA-
3 (Ultra-ATA) standards or above, this means that the device does not support the S.M.A.R.T.

setting a command device is necessary to initiate this function during startup and a
separate software package is needed to activate the S.M.A.R.T. function. This is the
normal setting.

IRQ-6 used by the FDC has been opened. Please refer to the section on floppy disks
regarding the use of FDD.

does not have an expanded ROM BIOS mounted on it.

exactly, it means that the PC card attached to the slot has an expanded ROM BIOS,
such as an SCIS network card, mounted on it.
