EIDE hard-disk drives must be physically formatted, partitioned, and logically
formatted before they can be used to store data. Every hard-disk drive from Dell is
physically formatted before it is sent to you.
NOTE: When using the Windows NT operating system with the 16-bit file allocation
table (FAT16) file system, the primary partition for each hard-disk drive can be no
larger than 2 gigabytes (GB). Extended partitions can be larger than 2 GB, but each
logical drive within an extended partition must be no larger than 2 GB.
To partition and logically format your hard-disk drive, use the program(s) offered by
your operating system.

To use SCSI devices in your Dell computer, you must have a SCSI host adapter card,
which comes with its own SCSI cable. You can use this cable to attach a variety of
SCSI devices (hard-disk drives, tape drives, and so on). The SCSI host adapter
configures the devices attached to it as one subsystem, not as independent devices.
Although you install SCSI devices basically the same way as other devices, their
configuration requirements are different.
