3-8 Chapter 3

ä LBA (Logical Block Addressing) mode:

LBA mode supports hard disk drives up to 8.4Giga. This mode

uses a different method to calculate the position of disk data to

be accessed. It translates Cylinders (CYLS), Heads and Sectors

into a logical address where data are located. The Cylinders,

Heads, and Sectors displayed in this menu do not reflect the

actual structure of the hard disk, they are just reference values

used to calculate actual positions. Currently, all high capacity

hard disks support this mode, that’s why we recommend you

use this mode. The HDD AUTODETECTION option in the

Main Menu will automatically detect the parameters of your

hard disk and the mode supported.

ä LARGE Mode:

When the number of cylinders (CYLs) of the hard disk exceeds

1024 and DOS is not able to support it, or if your operating

system does not support LBA mode, you should select this

mode.

l FDD supporting 3 Mode:

3 Mode floppy disk drives (FDD) are 3 1/2” drives used in Japanese

computer systems. If you need to access data stored in this kind of floppy,

you must select this mode, and of course you must have a 3 Mode floppy

drive.
