Hard Disk Drive
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook hard disk drive capacity
is dependent on which model you are using. Some Life-
Book notebooks may also contain a second hard disk
drive in addition to the primary hard disk drive.
(See Specifications on page 71 for more information)
FORMATTING THE HARD DISK DRIVE
The internal hard disk drive is formatted, or initialized,
at the factory. You do not need to format it under
normal circumstances. If you decide to reformat due to
corruption or upgrade, please refer to your operating
system documentation for the correct procedure.
Before you reformat your hard disk drive, please note:
■
Any data that currently resides on your hard disk drive
must be backed-up to floppy disks or other data
storage media, or it will be permanently lost. These
back-up disks can then be used to reinstall and restore
your data.
(See your operating system manual for more
information on backing-up your data files)
■
All application software that is installed on the hard
disk drive, must be reinstalled from the original
source.
You should not reformat your hard disk
unless you are instructed to do so by
Technical Support. Reformatting the hard
disk drive will erase all of the data
currently stored on it, including the
operating system and installed programs.
