What you need
•Straight-edge and Phillips screwdrivers
•Drive mounting screws
•A SCSI interface host adapter
•A 50-pin SCSI interface cable
•An unused drive power cable for your new drive
•A DOS or Windows 95 system setup diskette (Seagate recom-
mends using DOS Version 5.0 or later).
•If you are mounting this 3.5-inch drive in a 5.25-inch drive bay,
you need a mounting adapter or frame kit. Also, you may need
drive mounting rails if your drive bay is not designed for direct
mounting.
Before you begin
•Make sure your computer is turned off before you open the
case.
•Read the handling precautions following and inspect the drive
to make sure that it is not damaged.
•Save your foam-lined Seagatedisc drive box. This box has
been approved by Seagate for shipping a Seagate disc drive.
Using any other container or packing material voids your drive
warranty.

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 cir-
cuit board.
Always handle the drive by its edges or frame.
Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit
board or the top of the drive.

SCSI ID jumpers and drive termination
Setting the SCSI ID
Your SCSI drive is configured at the factory as SCSI ID 0 (no
jumpers installed). If you are installing only one drive or if this will
be your boot drive, the drive should be configured as SCSI ID 0.
Each device on the SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID. If
you are installing a second hard drive, choose the next available
ID. SCSI ID 7 is usually reserved for the SCSI host adapter.
Figure 1 on page 4 shows the jumper settings for SCSI IDs 0
through 7.

SCSI termination
Figure 2. Termination for internal SCSI devices
Chains of SCSI devices must be terminated at each end of the
cable.
The figure above shows two internal hard drives with the termi-
nation enabled for the SCSI host adapter and the last device on
the cable.
If your new drive is the last device on the SCSI cable, you must
enable termination. Active termination is enabled when there are
no jumpers on pins 11 and 12 of the options jumper block. This
is the default setting.
If your drive is not the last device on the SCSI cable, SCSI termi-
nation must be disabled by placing a jumper on pins 11 and 12.

Figure 3. Termination for internal and external SCSI devices
This figure shows a SCSI chain with two internal SCSI devices
and two external SCSI devices. The SCSI devices at the ends of
each cable are terminated.
Note. Some SCSI host adapters should remain terminated
even if they are in the middle of the chain. Also, some
adapters treat the internal and external chains as sepa-
rate logical buses. This means you may need to termi-
nate both the first and last devices on both logical buses
to achieve proper termination. Refer to your computer or
host adapter documentation to see how this is handled in
your system.
