The physical design characteristics of the drive(s)
described herein, serve to minimize EMI radiation
when installed in an enclosure that provides reason-
able shielding. As such, the drive(s) are capable of
meeting the Class B limits of the FCC Rules and the
RegulationsoftheCanadianDepartmentofCommuni-
cations.

Before you begin
Verify that the system is switched off and discon-
nected from main power before any installation is
attempted.
Protect yourself, the drive, and your valuable pro-
grams and data by reading the following cautions
and warnings.

•When transporting or shipping a drive or system,
please ensure that they are correctly packed in
original Seagate approved (or equivalent) container
and shipped via an air-ride carrier experienced in
handling computer equipment.
•Donotunpack drivefrom itsstaticshieldedbaguntil
you are ready to install it in the system.
•Always handle the drive by the frame or casting.
•Do not touch Printed Circuit Board (PCB) or the I/O
connector pins.
•Never apply pressure to the PCB or to the drive top
cover
Caution. The circuit assemblies and components
containedinthisequipmentcanbedegraded
or destroyed by Electrostatic Overstress
(EOS) or by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

Installation Overview
Installation of the drive can be divided into distinct
phases. Some of these may not be applicable to all
system installation requirements. Refer to the indi-
vidualdriveinstallationsectionsforspecificinformation
on your drive model.
•Drive configuration: Select those drive features
thatareappropriatetoinstallthedriveinthesystem.
Thisisdonebyinstallingorremovinguserconfigura-
tion jumpers found on the drive PCB.
•Mechanical installation: After setting up the drive
configuration the drive must be mechanically in-
stalledinto the host system and the power and I/O
cables attached. Previously mentioned precautions
should be observed.
•CMOS configuration: SCSI drives should not be
definedintheCMOS.TheSCSIhostadapterusesits
own BIOS to handle the Input/Output procedures.
TheCMOS settingfor SCSI driveis eitherdrivetype
zero, or the no drive installed option.
