The BIOS numbers disks according to the order in which they are connected to IDE
controllers (primary master, primary slave, secondary master, secondary slave);
next go the SCSI hard disks.
This order is broken if you change the boot sequence in BIOS setup. If, for
example, you specify that booting has to be done from hard disk E:, numbering
starts with the hard disk that would be the third in usual circumstances (it is usually
the secondary master).
After you have installed the hard disk in your computer and have configured it in
BIOS, one can say that the PC (or the motherboard) «knows» about its existence
and its main parameters. However, it is still not enough for an operating system to
work with the hard disk.

Below, we provide an example of configuring hard disks in AwardBIOS.
The Main AwardBIOS menu, which is responsible for configuring hard disks on
