Bluetooth Power Setting (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
You can adjust the Bluetooth module power setting to your preference. The default
setting (Disabled) will see the Bluetooth module powered off when the system is
started up or restarted. Enabling the power setting will have the module retain the
last power status (on or off) before any restart or shut down.
SATA Mode (Advanced Menu)
You can configure SATA (Serial ATA) control to operate in either AHCI (Ad-
vanced Host Controller Interface) or RAID (Redundant Array of Independent
Disks) modes from this menu. The SATA mode should be set BEFORE installing
an operating system, and after you have backed up all necessary files and data (see
sidebar). See “Setting Up SATA RAID Mode” on page 7 - 2 for details if you are
configuring you hard disks in a RAID.
