Automatic detection and enabling of IDE hard drives—during POST, if an
IDE controller is detected, the BIOS does the following:
❏ Determines the types of IDE drives attached
❏ Sets the drive parameters for the best performance
❏ Maps each device into memory and I/O space
❏ Assigns IRQs and DMA channels so there are no conflicts
If you choose parameters for your drive that are different from the drive’s
native parameters, your definitions will be programmed into the drive
controller.
To disable the IDE controller
If you plan to disable the IDE controller to reuse the interrupt for that controller,
you must physically unplug the IDE cable from the board connector (IDE0) if
a cable is present. Simply disabling the drive by configuring the SCU option
does not make the interrupt available for other use.
