Thank you for purchasing a Seagate drive!

The following instructions have been customized for your system. In addition to these instructions, you may need to refer to your computer owner's manual for information specific to your system, such as System Setup.

FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS:

[ENTERSETUP]

RUNNING THE SYSTEM SETUP PROGRAM

To change your computers settings, you must enter the 'Setup' or 'CMOS Setup' program of your computer and change the information.  There are several ways to enter the setup, depending on your computer make and model. Usually on the initial power up, there will be a message stating 'Press DEL to enter Setup' or something similar.  It may be necessary to press the key quickly, as the boot sequence may continue on momentarily.

Check your computer or motherboard manual for the correct key combination, or look for one of the following phrases or something similar with the word 'Setup' in it.

- Hit DEL if you want to run Setup
- Press F1 to enter Setup
- Press F2 to enter Setup
- Press and hold CTRL-ALT-ESC to begin System Setup
- To enter setup: Boot to a DOS prompt, and press CTRL-ALT-Enter
- Press CTRL-ALT-S to enter Setup

If you cannot determine how to enter the System Setup program, consult your computer's manual or contact the manufacturer. [ENABLESECONDARY]

ENABLING THE SECONDARY CONTROLLER

After swapping drives you must enable the secondary contoller in order to use the partitions on the secondary drive. Refer to the following instructions for information about entering the System Setup program. [DISASSEMBLY]

RUNNING THE SYSTEM SETUP PROGRAM

NOTE: Some BIOSes will not allow you to change the settings for your new drive until after it is installed. If your system does not allow you to configure settings until after your drive is installed, refer to this section after you have installed your drive.

Enter system setup (CMOS).

NOTE: If you cannot determine the proper key sequence to enter System Setup, refer to your computer owner's manual or call your computer manufacturer for assistance. [SYSTEMSETUPAUTO]

[MASTERDRIVELINK]

[POSTMASTERDRIVE]

NOTE: The jumper settings on your old drive need to be changed when adding a slave drive. You may need to remove the old drive to change the jumper settings. After the jumpers are properly set, reinstall this drive.
[SYSTEMLOCKUP]

TROUBLESHOOTING

System Lockup Information

If you have added a new drive and your system locks up at boot time (right after turning the power on), or locks up during System Setup, there are several possible causes.

  1. Verify that the 40-pin ribbon cable is properly attached, making sure that pin 1 on the cable matches pin 1 on the drive.
  2. If your new drive is larger than 2.1Gb, and your System Setup (CMOS) is set to "AUTO", you may have a BIOS with a 4096-cylinder limitation that hangs the system during auto-detection. Your computer manufacturer may have a BIOS upgrade that will support more than 4096 cylinders.
To continue with this installation, your drive may provide an alternate capacity (AC) jumper setting that lowers the cylinder auto-detection to below the BIOS limitation barrier and still provide full drive capacity using the DiscWizard installation utility.

In this case, power off your system and install your drive's AC jumper, or remove your new drive and go to the beginning of these instructions and follow each step.

For drives WITH an alternate capacity (AC) option jumper:

  1. Install the AC jumper per drive label instructions.
  2. Set the CMOS drive type using ONE of the following methods listed in preferred order:

For drives WITHOUT an alternate capacity (AC) option jumper, choose one of the above options in step 2 except "Automatic Drive Detection".

Systems with a CD-ROM in the secondary master position

If you are adding your new drive in the secondary slave position and have a CD-ROM in the secondary master position, there is a possibility that this configuration will not work correctly. If this is the case, it will be necessary to jumper the CD-ROM as the slave and the new drive as the master drive.

[MOUNTDRIVEDETAILED]

INSTRUCTIONS FOR MOUNTING THE DRIVE

If you plan to add the new drive as the boot drive, you may wish to defer mounting the drive until after Disc Wizard 2000 has completed the installation.

Mount the drive.

  1. Mount the drive in either the horizontal or the vertical position.
  2. Slide the drive into the bay.
  3. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive housing or expansion brackets. Hand thread the screws to lightly secure the drive in the bay. For some installations, you might have to use the screw holes on the bottom (circuit board side) of the drive.
  4. Check the drive alignment and tighten the screws firmly. DO NOT over tighten.
NOTE: If you need to attach the drive in a 5.25-inch bay, attach a pair of 3.5-inch to 5.25-inch expansion brackets as shown in the following illustration. Some computers require that you attach special hard-disc-drive mounting hardware to ensure that the drive mounts securely into the bay. Contact your computer dealer or refer to the documentation that comes with your computer if you need specialized mounting hardware or more information.


[ATTACHCABLEBRIEF]

Attach the cables to your new drive.

NOTE: Be sure that pin 1, the colored wire on the interface cable is closest to the DC power connector.
[ATTACHCABLEDETAILED]

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ATTACHING CABLES TO THE DRIVE

  Attach the cables to your new drive.

  1. Locate a free device connector on the IDE interface cable in your computer.  The following illustration shows an interface cable with three connectors and two attached devices.  One end connector and the middle connector on the cable connect to the storage devices.  The other end of the cable connects to the IDE port.  The IDE port can be on the computer system board or on an adapter installed in an expansion slot.  For the best signal quality when you have only one device on the IDE cable, connect the device to the connector on the end opposite the IDE port. Attach an available connector on the interface cable to the connector on the drive.

  2. Be sure that pin 1, the colored wire on the interface cable, is closest to the DC power connector.

  3. Find an unused power connector on a cable coming from the computer power supply and attach it to the four-pin DC power connector.  The power connector is keyed so that it attaches one way only. DO NOT force it.  If the connector does not attach using reasonable pressure, turn it and try again.
  4. Verify that the cables do not interfere with the computer cover and do not block the power-supply fan blades or air-flow paths.
NOTE: If all power cables are in use, purchase a DC Y-connector (available at many electronic stores) and split a connection to provide power for more devices. [RECONNECTDEVICES]

Reconnect all devices. Make sure that the keyboard, mouse and monitor cables are firmly connected.

Reconnect all AC power cords.
[REMOUNT]

NOTE: It may be necessary to dismount your drive in order to change the jumper settings for it. If this is the case, then dismount your drive, configure it with the proper jumper settings, and remount it using the same procedure as was described in MOUNTING THE DRIVE earlier in this manual.
