PC Drive Types
Examine the entries in your drive table and find the type that
most resembles the head and cylinder parameters of the drive
without exceeding these parameters. If you are using third-party
installation/partitioning software, follow the instructions
included with the software as it may perform this step
automatically.

DS1, DS2, DS3, DS4 Drive Select Jumpers
The Drive Select jumper locations are identified as DS1, DS2,
DS3, and DS4. Only one Drive Select jumper is installed on a
drive. The drives are shipped with the jumper installed at DS1.
For every drive in a PC/AT installation, move the jumper from DS1
to DS2 (the special twisted interface cable that is generally
used takes care of assigning a unique address to each drive).
Some other systems may require that each drive be jumpered to a
unique address (i.e., different DS numbers).
RN1 Interface Terminator
The Interface Terminator factory installed at RN1 provides proper
termination for the interface lines. When daisy-chaining multiple
1300 drives, leave the terminator in the last physical drive on
the daisy chain cable; remove the terminator from each of the
other drives. In most PC/AT installations, the C: drive is
actually at the end of the cable and should retain the
terminator.
W1 Write Fault Latch
W1 is the Write Fault Latch. If W1 is present and the drive
encounters a write fault, all writing to the drive is inhibited
until after the drive has been de-selected. If W1 is absent,
fault conditions are not latched. Drives are shipped with a
jumper installed at W1; remove it for PC/AT installations.
W2 is always installed.
W7 is never installed.
W8 is always installed.
