Handling precautions

1. 

Do not cover the breather hole!

  Covering the

breather hole may result in loss of

 data.

2. 

Do not press on the drive!

  Do not apply any force to

the drive during handling or installation.

3. Always handle the drive with care to prevent damage
from shock, vibration, or electrostatic dis charge (ESD).
4. Do not open the static-protective bag containing the
drive until required.  Static electricity can damage the
drive.
5. Turn off and unplug your computer.  Remove the
cover.
6. When installing the drive, touch a grounded,
unpainted metal surface with the static-protective
package containing the drive for at least two seconds.
(This drains static electricity from the package and from
your body.)
7. Handle the drive carefully by the edges.  Do not touch
any exposed printed circuit board.  
8. Save the drive packaging material including the ESD
bag in the event that the drive must be returned.  Place
the drive in an anti-static bag before placing it in the
shipping container.  The warranty will be void if the drive
is not returned in IBM approved packaging.

Quick installation procedure

Note: It is advisable to backup all data before
proceeding with the installation.

If your system BIOS cannot handle large capacity drives
(over 540 MB), you may need to use a disk overlay
program such as Ontrack’s Disk Manager.  The
following procedure uses the Ontrack Disk Manager
software.  Information on obtaining a copy of Ontrack’s
Disk Manager can be found on the Web at
www.ibm.com/harddrive.

Setting the jumpers

1.  Refer to your computer manual to determine if you
require the 15 or 16 head logical architecture.
2.  In a one drive system, configure your new drive as
Master (Device 0) with no jumpers installed.
3.  In a two drive system, one drive must be designated
as the Master, the other as the Slave (Device 1)
4.  When installing the new drive as a Slave, check the
Master drive to determine if a jumper change is re-
quired to indicate the presence of a Slave drive.
5.  Consult your manual to see if your computer
supports Cable Select before choosing this option.
