Quick installation
__________________________________________
Installation of this Hitachi Travelstar drive in
some notebooks may require use of unique
hardware (such as mounting trays, connecting
cable, insulating material). If you are uncertain if
hardware is needed, consult your notebook
manufacturer as this operation may require a
qualified technician.
Back up all data before proceeding with
installation.

system, place a jumper in setting A2. (See
the A2 setting in the illustration.)

4. Partition and format
• FDISK.EXE and FORMAT.EXE (or a similar
partitioning software from the operating system)
Follow the instructions provided with your operating
system to partition the drive. If FDISK.EXE recognizes
only 8.4 GB of a drive, the BIOS may not support
Interrupt 13 Extensions.
Format the drive by following the instructions provided
with FORMAT.EXE. Formatting will verify the hard disk
media and create file allocation tables for the partition.
5. Boot up the computer
If the system does not boot up after the installation of
the drive, check all the settings. If the system still fails to
boot up, contact the Hitachi Global Storage
Technologies Support Center at
