I'd like to know what setting you're trying to implement in your BIOS settings, but my first reply would be, no. But it may depend on the other choices in your BIOS settings. If there is a reference to an a: drive or floppy disk drive, then no. If it looks as though that is the only reference to internal disk drives (excluding the h/D of course) then you may try your setting with the assumption that it is a removeable device. Trial and error should not be very risky. But without seeing you r BIOS screens, I can't say for sure.

The bios does have a setting for designating the floppy drive as a removeable device.
Being hardware designates it as removeable when you remove from the machine.

Most of the time removable devices are devices such as Zip drives, hot swappable drives etc.
