I'm setting up a new FreeNAS 9.10 build on an ASRock C2750D4I motherboard.

The default BIOS settings under `Advanced -> Storage Configuration` are:

I have two questions:

1. The `Hard Disk S.M.A.R.T.` needs to be switched to `Enabled`, right?

2. Are there any other changes that should be made?

Probably not, that's just the BIOS-level monitoring. Shouldn't cause any harm to turn it on, though.

Set everything to AHCI and turn off booting for any controllers that don't have boot devices.
