a device item then press <Enter> to display the IDE/SATA/external SATA device information.

The BIOS automatically detects the values opposite the dimmed items (Device, Vendor, Size,

LBA Mode, Block Mode, PIO Mode, DMA Mode, and SMART monitoring). These values are

not user-congurable. These items show Not Detected if no IDE/SATA device is installed in

the system.
