Quick installation procedure

_______________________________________

Note: Back up all data before installing drive!

1. Turn off the computer.

2. Unplug the computer

3. Remove the computer cover as instructed by

the computer system manual.

4. Discharge static electricity (see Handling

precautions).

5. Note the mounting position of existing drives

and cables. If you are replacing a drive or any

cable, remove it now.

6. Remove the drive from the ESD bag.

7. Record the model, the part number, and the

serial number of the drive for future reference.

8. Insert the required jumpers. Refer to the jumper

block diagram below.

• If the drive is the only drive on a cable or the

master drive on a two-drive cable, leave the

jumpers as set at A-B and G-H for 16 head

logical architecture. If the drive is the slave

drive on a two-drive cable, set the jumpers at

A-B and C-D for 16-head logical architecture.

9. Attach the IDE cable.

• If you have a 40-pin 40-conductor cable,

attach the system connector of the cable

to the IDE port on the motherboard or

controller card. The pin 1 side of the IDE

cable is marked with a stripe. The

connector can only be inserted one way.

• If you have a 40-pin 80-conductor cable,

attach the drive to the appropriate

color-coded connector. Forty-pin

80-conductor cables are color-coded

black for Master, gray for Slave, and blue

for system connectors.

10. Attach the power supply cable to the drive.

Match the connector bevels.

11. Mount the drive securely.

12. Verify all attachments.

13. Replace the computer cover.

14. Plug in the computer.

15. Turn on the computer.

16. Verify that the hard disk is recognized by the

BIOS and is reporting the full capacity of the

drive. Instructions for accessing your BIOS

can be found in the computer system manual

or in the motherboard manufacturer

documentation. If the drive is not recognized

in the BIOS, set the BIOS options of your

computer system to Auto Detection and LBA

mode if available. Once the drive is

recognized correctly in the BIOS, it is ready to

be partitioned and formatted.
