Table 3-2 Computer Setup—Storage (continued)
DPS Self-Test Allows you to execute self-tests on ATA hard drives capable of performing the Drive Protection
System (DPS) self-tests.
NOTE: This selection will only appear when at least one drive capable of performing the DPS
self-tests is attached to the system.
Boot Order Allows you to:
Specify the order in which EFI boot sources and legacy boot sources (such as a USB flash
media device, hard drive, optical drive, or network interface card) are checked for a bootable
operating system image. Each device on the list may be individually excluded from or
included for consideration as a bootable operating system source.
Specify the order of attached hard drives. The first hard drive in the order will have priority in
the boot sequence and will be recognized as drive C (if any devices are attached).
Press F5 to disable a device. Press Enter to select a device. Press the arrow keys to drag a
selected device.
NOTE: MS-DOS drive lettering assignments may not apply after a non-MS-DOS operating
system has started.
Shortcut to Temporarily Override Boot Order
To boot one time from a device other than the default device specified in Boot Order, restart the
computer and press F9 before the computer boots to the operating system. After POST is
completed, a list of bootable devices is displayed. Use the arrow keys to select the preferred
bootable device and press Enter. The computer then boots from the selected non-default device
for this one time.
