Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 1 The easiest way to install your drive DiscWizard is Seagate’s exclusive Windows program that is included with your drive for easy drive installation. DiscWizard helps you configure your new drive and your computer. It analyzes your system, lets you select various installation options and creates customized step-by-step instructions. It also allows older computers to access the full capacity of large hard drives.
2 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A What you need • Straight-edge and Phillips screwdrivers • Four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws • A standard 40-pin ATA interface cable, or an 80-conductor cable to run Ultra ATA 66 (max length: 18 inches) • An unused drive power cable for your new drive Ultra ATA/66 Requirements The drive can support transfer rates up to 66 Mbytes per second in Ultra ATA/66 mode.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 3 Handling precautions Disc drives are extremely fragile. Do not drop or jar your drive. Keep the drive in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it. Protect your drive from static discharge by making sure you are well grounded before touching the drive. We recommend wearing a grounded wrist strap throughout the installation process. Do not touch the connectors or any part of the printed circuit board.
4 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A Master/slave jumpers If you already have one hard drive in your computer and you are installing a second drive, you must configure one drive as a master and the other as a slave. Note. If you need to change the jumpers on your existing hard drive, see the Disk Manager online manual, look on the drive label, or contact the drive manufacturer.

12 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A Preparing your drive for use Installing a single drive For a quick installation, we recommend you use Disk Manager to automatically partition and format your drive. Disk Manager also ensures that your computer can access the full capacity of your hard drive. See “Installation using Disk Manager” below. If you do not want to use Disk Manager, you can use the standard DOS commands to partition and format your drive.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 13 4. Select either (E)asy Disk Installation or (A)dvanced Disk Installation. Disk Manager lists all the hard drives that it detects. You should see your new Seagate drive and your existing hard drive, if any. If any hard drive is not recognized, exit Disk Manager and turn off your computer. Check all cables, jumpers and BIOS settings. Then start at step 1 to run Disk Manager again. 5.
14 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A Standard DOS installation ! Caution. Partitioning or formatting a drive erases all data on it. Seagate assumes no liability if you erase your data. Drive partitioning Partitioning a hard drive divides it into sections (partitions) that function as separate logical drives (labeled C,D,E, etc.). To partition your new drive using DOS: 1. Insert a bootable DOS diskette into your diskette drive and restart your computer.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 15 7. When partitioning is complete, FDISK reboots your computer. Proceed to “Drive Formatting.” á Note. If you are adding a second drive to your system, you can run FDISK from Windows. Click the Start button. Select Run... Then type fdisk and click OK. Drive formatting ! Caution. Use the correct drive letters so that you do not format a drive that already contains data.

20 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A Troubleshooting If you have installed your drive and it does not function properly, perform the following basic checks: Warning. Always turn off the computer before changing jumpers or unplugging cables and cards. Wear a ground strap or use other antistatic precautions while working on your computer or handling your drive. • Verify compatibility.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 21 • Verify the drive-type settings in the system setup pro- • gram. The drive-type settings in the system BIOS must not exceed the physical specifications of your drive. Also, the settings must not exceed the limitations set by the operating system and BIOS. Check for viruses. Before you use someone else’s diskette in your system for the first time, scan the diskette for viruses.
22 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 2 46 8 1357 Full capacity Limit capacity to 2.1 Gbytes (4,092 cylinders) Figure 5. Alternate Capacity Jumper 2. Move the jumper on the alternate-capacity jumper, as shown in Figure 5. This causes the drive to appear to your BIOS as having a 2.1-Gbyte capacity (4,092 cylinders, 16 heads, 63 sectors per track). You may need third-party partitioning software, such as Disk Manager, to achieve full capacity of the drive.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 23 3. Remount your drive in the computer and replace the computer cover. 4. Insert a bootable system diskette into drive A and turn on the computer. It should boot from drive A and automatically detect the new drive as a 2.1-Gbyte drive. 5. Insert your DiscWizard diskette or CD (If you are using the CD, change to the drive letter of your CD-ROM). Type dm. Then press ENTER. This runs the Disk Manager program. 6.
24 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A • Reboot the computer and listen to make sure the drive motor • • • starts up. If the drive is very quiet, it may be difficult to hear its discs reach operating speed. If the drive motor does not start up, recheck all drive cables. Verify that for each drive, a drive-type value is listed in the system setup program. Try rebooting your computer by pressing the CTRL, ALT and DELETE keys simultaneously.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 25 • If Disk Manager has installed the DDO on your hard drive and you have booted directly from a diskette, the information in the boot record for the drive may not have been loaded. Make sure there is no diskette in drive A and reboot. If you want to boot from the diskette, follow the “Booting with a Diskette” instructions under “Advanced Disk Manager options” on page 17.
26 Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A tem. You must disable this feature in the system setup program before you can use FDISK. See your computer reference guide for assistance. Be sure to re-enable this important feature when FDISK is done. The system error message, “Drive not Ready,” appears. • Check all cable connections. Verify that pin 1 on the drive is connected to pin 1 on the motherboard. • Make sure the power supply is adequate for system needs.
Barracuda ATA Family Installation Guide, Rev. A ! 27 Caution. If you change the drive-type values in the system setup program, you must partition and format the drive again. This erases data on the drive. • If you have partitioned the drive into individual logical drives, • you may need to make the partitions smaller to access the full drive capacity. If your computer supports LBA mode, you may need to enable LBA mode in the system setup program to access the full capacity of the drive.
