Disable the BIOS to use other boot devices.
In a multiple controller environment, you can enable BIOS on
multiple controllers. However, if you want to boot from a
specific controller, then enable the BIOS on that controller
and disable it on the other controllers. The system can then
boot from the BIOS-enabled controller.

there are BIOS errors. The option enables you to enter the
configuration utility to resolve the problem.

Non-RAID drive.
The option is displayed if you have built virtual disks.
