ATA Interface Disc Drives
Publication Number: 100217284, Rev. B, September 2003
The easiest way to install your drive
DiscWizardTM, available exclusively from Seagate®, provides you with cus-
tomized installation instructions for your hard drive. You can get this free
disc drive installation software from our web site at www.seagate.com/sup-
port or run the program directly from your web browser. In either case, you
should run DiscWizard before you install your drive.
To run DiscWizard:
Follow the instructions on the download page at www.seagate.com to cre-
ate a diskette and complete the installation.
If you cannot run DiscWizard, follow the instructions on this installation
sheet to install and configure your drive.
What you need
• A Phillips screwdriver and four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws
• An ATA interface cable. For optimum drive performance and data integ-
rity, use an 80-conductor Ultra ATA/100 cable (which can be identified by
its blue, gray, and black connectors).
Ultra ATA/100 requirements
The drive can be configured to support a default maximum transfer rate.
This drive can support transfer rates up to 100 Mbytes per second (UDMA
5) in Ultra ATA/100 mode. Using a software utility, you can set the default
transfer rate to the best capability of your system. 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 computer dealer)
• A software utility to confirm and activate Ultra ATA/100. Seagate pro-
vides a utility called UATA100.exe. You can download the latest version
from our web site at www.seagate.com.
• Windows XP, Windows Me, or Windows 98 operating system which sup-
ports Ultra ATA 100.
Large disc requirements (for capacities over 137 Bytes)
To realize the full capacity of drives over 137 Gbytes:
• Use an operating system that supports 48-bit addressing:
- Microsoft Windows XP Home with Service Pack 1
- Microsoft Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 1
- Windows 2000 Professional with Service Pack 3
- Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 3
• Use a 48-bit compatible Ultra ATA/133 PCI host adapter card or connec-
tor on your motherboard.
See the http://support.seagate.com for additional information.
Handling precautions/electrostatic discharge protection
• Disc drives are fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Handle the drive only
by the edges or frame.
• Drive electronics are extremely sensitive to static electricity. While
installing the drive, wear a wrist strap and cable connected to ground.
• Turn off the power to the host system during installation.
• Do not disassemble the drive; doing so voids the warranty. Return the
entire drive for depot service if any part is defective.
• Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the drive.
Setting the jumpers
Refer to the jumper settings illustration below or on your drive label to con-
figure the drive for your system. Jumper settings can also be accessed
online from our web site at www.seagate.com.
•Master or single drive: The drive is shipped configured for a master or
a single drive with a jumper set on pins 7 and 8.
•Drive is slave: To configure the drive as a slave or second drive on the
cable, remove all the jumpers.
•Master with non-ATA compatible slave: Use this setting if the slave
drive is not recognized. Configure the master drive with a jumper set on
pins 5 and 6 and pins 7 and 8 to enable this option.
•Cable select: Computers that use cable select to determine the master
and slave drives by selecting or deselecting pin 28, CSEL, on the inter-
face bus. To enable cable select, set a jumper on pins 5 and 6.
•Alternate capacity jumper: Drives
with a 40-Gbyte capacity or greater
are limited to 32 Gbytes. Use this
jumper only if you have a legacy sys-
tem with a BIOS that does not support
large capacity disc drives. When
using the alternate capacity jumper,
• Manager software is required to
achieve the drive’s full capacity.
Attaching cables and mounting
the drive
1. Attach one end of the drive interface
cable to the interface connector on your computer’s motherboard (see
your computer manual for connector locations).
Caution. Align pin 1 on the motherboard connector with pin 1 on your
drive connector. Pin 1 is marked by a stripe on one side of the
cable.
2. Secure the drive using four 6-32 UNC mounting screws in either the
side-mounting or bottom-mounting holes. Insert the screws no more
than 0.20 inches (5.08 mm) into the bottom-mounting holes and no
more than 0.14 inches (3.55 mm) into the side-mounting holes.
Note. Do not overtighten the screws or use metric screws. This may dam-
age the drive.
3. Attach the interface connector and the power connector to the drive.
Configuring the BIOS
Close your computer case and restart your computer. your computer may
automatically detect your new drive. If your computer does not automati-
cally detect your new drive, follow the steps below.
a. Restart your computer. While the computer restarts, run the System
Setup program (sometimes called BIOS or CMOS setup). This is usu-
ally done by pressing a special key, such as DELETE, ESC, or F1 dur-
ing the startup process.
b. Within the System Setup program, instruct the system to auto detect
your new drive.
c. Enable LBA and UDMA modes, if available and then save the settings
and exit the Setup program.
When your computer restarts, it should recognize your new drive. If your
system still doesn’t recognize your new drive, see the troubleshooting sec-
tion on the back of this sheet.

Preparing the drive using DiscWizard
Installing a single drive
If you are installing a single drive, we recommend using DiscWizard to
automatically partition and format your drive. DiscWizard software is avail-
able at www.seagate.com and is free. During the download, the Diskette
Creator creates a portable bootable diskette. To run DiscWizard:
1. Insert your bootable DiscWizard diskette and follow the instructions.
DiscWizard will guide you through the installation process.
2. Boot your computer from the Windows operating system CD-ROM or
from your system startup diskette with the Windows CD loaded. At the
prompt, type setup. Follow the instructions provided on your screen.
Installing a slave drive
If you are installing a second drive, or slave, to your system, use the Dis-
cWizard software available at www.seagate.com.
If you do not want to install your drive using either DiscWizard or Disk Man-
ager, see “Standard Microsoft Installation” below to partition and format
your drive.
Standard Microsoft installation
Caution. Partitioning or formatting a drive erases all data on the drive.
Seagate assumes no liability if you erase your data.
1. Insert a bootable Windows startup diskette and restart your computer.
This is provided with your Microsoft Windows operating system soft-
ware.
2. Run fdisk and create a primary DOS partition.
3. Mark the partition as active to make the partition bootable.
Drive formatting
Caution. Use the correct drive letters to prevent formatting a drive that
already contains data.
1. At the A: prompt, type format x: (where x is the letter of your first new
partition) and then press the Enter key. Repeat the format process for
all new partitions.
2. Proceed to “Loading the operating system” below.
Loading the operating system
Note. The operating system needs to be installed on the master drive
only. It is not required when adding a second drive.
1. Boot your computer from your Windows operating system CD-ROM or
from your system startup diskette with the Windows CD loaded in the
CD drive.
2. At the prompt, type setup and continue with the Windows setup as
instructed on your screen.
Troubleshooting
If your drive is not working properly, these troubleshooting tips may help
solve the problem.
1. Does the drive spin up? A spinning drive produces a faint whine and
clicking noise that begins when power is applied. If your drive does not
spin, check that the power connector and interface cable are securely
attached and the jumpers are installed correctly.
2. Does the computer recognize the drive? Verify that the drive is
enabled in the system CMOS or setup program. If not, select the auto-
detect option and enable it. If your drive has a problem, it may not be
recognized by the system.
3. Does FDISK detect the drive? Run the FDISK program located on
your Windows startup diskette. Type fdisk/status to verify that your
hard drive is present and recognized by the system.
4. Does Scandisk find the drive defect-free? Scandisk is a utility
located on your Windows startup diskette that scans the drive for
defects. If defects are detected, this may be an indication of a problem.
5. Why won’t the drive format to full capacity? Verify that your BIOS
has autodetect and LBA mode enabled. Otherwise, you may need to
use Disk Manager to achieve the full capacity of your drive. Download
the latest version from www.seagate.com or find it on your CD.
6. Why does my computer hang on startup? Verify that your system is
ATA/100 compatible with the UDMA mode setting. Some legacy BIOS
cause hangs on startup or other problems if it is not ATA/100 compati-
ble. For more information, see the earlier section on the Ultra ATA/100
requirements. In addition, some legacy BIOS may cause a hang due to
the large drive capacity. Consider using the alternate capacity jumper if
it is available on your drive model.
Use the alternate capacity jumper if your computer does not support
higher capacity drives. The jumper will limit large capacity drives to 32
Gbytes.
Note. If these tips do not answer your question or solve the problem, con-
tact your dealer or visit http://seatools.seagate.com to download
