The easiest way to install your drive

DiscWizardis Seagate’s exclusive Win-

dows program, provided on a diskette, that

makes it easy to install your Medalistdrive.

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 com-

puters to access the full capacity of large hard drives.

You can run DiscWizard to install your new hard drive if:

•You already have an existing, bootable hard drive in your com-

puter with at least 3 Mbytes of available disc space,

and

•You are running Windows 95

or Windows 98.

If you can run DiscWizard, follow the instructions on the

DiscWizard diskette to install your drive. If you need additional

information, refer to this installation guide.

If you cannot run DiscWizard, follow the instructions in this

installation guide to install and configure your new drive.

What you need

•Straight-edge and Phillips screwdrivers

•Four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws

•An ATA interface cable (max length: 18 inches) with

available 40-pin connector

•An unused drive power cable for your new drive

Before you begin

•Make sure your computer is turned off before you open the

case.

•Read the handling precautions at the right and inspect the

drive to make sure that it is not damaged.

•Save your foam-lined Seagatedisc 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.

Medalist 10240, 7630, 5120 and 2510, Rev. B 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 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.

Master/slave jumpers

If your new Seagatedrive will be the only drive in your computer,

you do not have to change any jumper settings. In this case, skip

ahead to “Attaching Cables and Mounting the Drive,” on page 6.

If you already have one hard drive in your computer and you are

installing a second drive, you must configure one drive as a mas-

ter and the other as a slave.

To configure the drive as a master or one drive only:

•Place a jumper on pins 7 and 8 (see Figure 1 on page 5).

The master drive usually defaults to being the “boot” drive

(drive C), from which the computer loads system software

when it first starts up.

To configure the drive as a slave:

•Remove all the jumpers.

•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.

Attaching cables and mounting the drive

1. If you are attaching a new ATA interface cable to a single drive,

attach one end of the cable to the interface connector on your

host adapter or motherboard. Motherboard connectors can be

identified by the IDE or HDD 40-pin connector. The ATA cable

must be no more than 18 inches (457 mm) long.

2. Thread the interface cable through the drive bay and attach

the connector at the end of the interface cable to your new

drive.

Note. If you have two drives, you can use either connector for

the master or slave drive.

Figure 2. Attaching the cables

Caution. To avoid possible damage to your system,

make sure to align pin 1 on the host adapter or mother-

board with pin 1 on your drive or drives. Pin 1 on the

interface cable is usually indicated by a stripe along the

edge of the cable.
