The individual menus and setting options are described in alphabetical
order in the following chapters.
The setting options depend on the hardware configuration of your device.
Some menus and certain settings may therefore not be available in BIOS Setup on your
device, or the menus may be in a different place, depending on the BIOS revision.

Main Menu – System functions
Maximum Capacity– Hard disk capacity
HarddiskparametersHarddiskcapacity
Shows the capacity of the hard disk as an LBA va lue. The LBA value is the capacity calculated by the
BIOS based on the maximum possible number of sectors reported by the hard disk. IDE and BIOS
restrict the arrangement of hard disks into cylinders, heads and sectors through maximum permissible
values. The hard disk permits more cylinders but fewer heads than the BIOS. A combination of IDE
and BIOS restrictions leads to a maximum addressable storage area of 528 MByte.
Not for optical storage media.
The following table lists the maximum permissible values and the resulting
maximum usable memory capacities.
BIOS
Max. sectors per
head (at 512 Byte)
Max. h eads per
cylinder
Max. cylinders 1024 65535 1024 65535
Capacity 8.4 GByte 137 GByte
LBA Translation converts the physical arrangement of a hard disk into cylinders, heads
and sectors so that the logical values generated lie within the above BIOS limitations. This
means that a hard disk capacity of over 528 MByte can be used. The operating system
and application programmes make use of these logical hard disk values. Hard disks of over
528 MByte are configured and operated using LBA mode. If the hard disk supports the LBA
mode, then the full memory capacity of the hard disk can be used.
The BIOS also supports 48-bit addressing for hard disks. This industry standard specifies hard disk
capacities up to 144 PByte (Petabyte) - approximately 120,000 times the 137 GByte limit.

If the hard disk supports LBA mode and it has a capacity of more than 528 MByte,

capacity to be used.
The BIOS uses the hard disk parameter s and supports a maximum cap acity of
528 MBytes.

The hard disk does not support a password. You cannot assign a password to

No password has been assigned to this hard disk.
A password has just been assigned to the hard disk.
The maximum number of permissible attempts at entering the password has been
exceeded. Switch off the system and retry.
The hard disk is protected and a passwo rd must be entered to gain access.
DCO (Device Con figu ration Overlays) is blocked. Switch off the system and retry.
Restart the system to change the security status of the hard disk. Open BIOS Setup
during system boot and change the desired settings.
The hard disk password protects you against unauthorised access to your hard
disk drives. Only people who know the hard disk password can boot the operating
system from the hard disk or access data on it. The passw ord must be four to eight
characters in length. All alphanume rical characters can be used, but no distinction
is made between upper-case and lower-case. Passwords are not displayed
during entry. The settings become effective immediately and will remain effective,
regardless of the method used to exit BIOS Setup later. The status of the hard disk
password will be displayed according to the current settings (Installed/Not Installed).
Access to the hard disk is also protected by requiring a master password to be
entered. This is intended for use in situations where the stan dard password has
been forgotten or is not known. The master password is norm ally kept secret and
can be obtained by contacting Fujitsu Siemens Computers customer service. The
master password can be deactivated so that access t o the hard disk is only possible
using the standard password.

The hard disk password enables you to prevent un authorized access to your hard disk drives.
Booting the operating system of the hard disk or access to data on the hard disk can only be
carried out by people who know the hard disk password. The password must consist of four
to e ight characters. All alphanumerical characters can be used, and the password is not case
sensitive. When entering the password, the password itself is not displayed. The settings become
effective immediately and remain effective regardless of how you end the BIOS Setup later.
