A The Easiest Way to Install Your Drive DiscWizard™ is Seagate's exclusive Windows program that is included with your drive for easy drive installation. You can use this software if you have a bootable hard drive in your computer and are running Windows 95 or 98. Run DiscWizard before installing your drive for customized step-by-step instructions for your system. To run DiscWizard: • Select Run from the Windows Start menu and type x:\setup, where x is the drive letter of your CD-ROM. If you cannot run DiscWizard, follow the instructions on this installation sheet to install and configure your drive. What You Need • Phillips screwdriver and four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws • A standard 40-pin ATA interface cable, or an 80-conductor cable to run Ultra ATA 100 (max length: 18 inches) • An unused drive power cable for your new drive • Windows 98 to support drives greater than 33.8 Gbytes Ultra ATA/100 Requirements The drive can support transfer rates up to 100 Mbytes per second (UDMA 5) in Ultra ATA/100 mode. For your drive to run in this mode, you need the following: • A computer that supports UDMA mode 5 • A 40-pin 80-conductor cable (available from your dealer) • A software utility to confirm and activate Ultra ATA/100. Seagate® provides a utility called UATA100.exe. You can download the latest version from our Web site at www.seagate.com. • The Windows 98 operating system Handling Precautions Disc drives are extremely fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Keep the drive in the protective SeaShell™ container until you are ready to install it. This minimizes handling damage. The drive has a protective cover called SeaShield®. Do not remove this permanent cover-it protects the drive from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and minor impact damage. Protect your drive from static discharge by wearing a grounded wrist strap throughout the installation process. Always handle the drive by the edges or frame. Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit board or the top of the drive. Setting the Jumpers Refer to the jumper settings below to configure the drive for your system.
