The System Information menu displays basic information about the system. Parameter Front Side Bus Speed Description The front side bus speed is the speed at which the CPU communicates with the mainboard and other parts of the system. Refer to "Server Management Configuration" on page 103 for the location of the CPU 1 socket. CPU Socket1 87 Parameter CPU Socket2 Description Indicates a processor is currently installed in the CPU 2 socket. Refer to "Mainboard layout" on page 17 for the location of the CPU 2 socket. The processor speed is the speed at which a microprocessor executes instructions. Clock speeds are expressed in megahertz (MHz), with 1 MHz being equal to 1 million cycles per second. The faster the clock, the more instructions the CPU can execute per second. Total amount of first-level cache memory or the internal fast-accessed memory size (i. e. , the memory integrated into the CPU). Total amount of the second-level cache memory that comes with the CPU. Indicates the hard disk type device. Processor Type Processor Speed CPU ID Level 1 Cache Level 2 Cache Primary/Secondary/ Third/Fourth IDE Master Primary/Secondary IDE Slave Total Memory Indicates the type of IDE device. Indicates the total amount of onboard memory. Specifies the current configuration of the IDE device connected to the slave port of the secondary IDE channel. Press Enter to access the Secondary IDE Slave submenu. Secondary IDE Slave 95 Primary/Secondary/Third/Fourth IDE Master/Slave These items let you select the IDE hard disk parameters that the system supports. Parameter Device Vendor Size Type Description Type of IDE device. Drive type Option Auto CD-ROM ARMD Not Installed 96 4 BIOS setup Parameter LBA/Large Mode Description Selects the hard disk drive translation method. If you set this parameter to Auto, BIOS setup automatically detects if the installed hard disk drive supports the Block Mode function. If supported, it allows data transfer in blocks (multiple sectors) at a rate of 256 bytes per cycle. If you set this parameter to Disabled, data transfer from and to the device occurs one sector at a time. Option Auto Disabled Block Mode Auto Disabled PIO Mode When set to Auto, BIOS setup automatically detects if the installed hard disk supports the function. If supported, it allows for faster data recovery and read/write timing that reduces hard disk activity time. Selects DMA mode. Auto 0 1 2 3 4 DMA Mode Auto SWDMAn MWDMAn UDMAn S. M. A. R. T Enables or disables the SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) function of the internal hard disk. If 'Auto' is selected, BIOS setup will enable the S. M. A. R. T function if the drive supports it. Auto Disabled Enabled 32-bit Data Transfer Enables or disables the 32-bit data transfer function Disabled Enabled 97 Floppy Configuration The Floppy Configuration submenu displays the type of floppy drive installed in the server. Parameter Floppy A Description Floppy disk drive type Option 1. 44 MB, 3. 5-inch Disabled 98 4 BIOS setup PCI/PnP Configuration The PCI/PnP Configuration submenu lets you specify the settings for the PCI devices. Parameter Reset Resource Assignment Description BIOS setup stores the configuration data of Plug and Play devices in NVRAM (Non-volatile Random Access Memory). When this parameter is set to Yes, current data is deleted and a new set of information is created during the next system bootup. Option No Yes USB Function Enables or disables the USB ports. Enabled Disabled Legacy USB Support Enable this parameter when you intend to use a USB device in a non-Plug and Play operating system, such as DOS. Auto 99 Boot Settings Configuration The Boot Settings Configuration submenu lets you specify the preferred settings for system bootup. Parameter Quick Boot Description Allows the system to boot faster by skipping some POST routine. Option Enabled Disabled 100 4 BIOS setup Parameter Quiet Boot Description Enables or disables the Quiet Boot function. When set to Enabled, BIOS setup is in graphical mode and displays only an identification logo during POST and while booting. [. . . ] You will be prompted to choose a destination directory.
