SlimSCSI 1460 Adapter User’s Guide

4

When you see the message 

You may safely remove this device

remove the SlimSCSI 1460 from the slot.

Caution: 

Your PC may hang if you remove the adapter 

before the message appears.

When you insert the SlimSCSI 1460 adapter while Windows 95 is 
running, Windows 95 detects the adapter and the device(s) con-
nected to it. (Be sure the devices are powered before you insert the 
adapter!)

Disk Partitioning

If you want to use a new, unpartitioned SCSI drive with your 
SlimSCSI adapter, you must first partition the drive. Follow these 
instructions:

Windows 3.x or Windows 95 PCs: Boot the PC to DOS and parti-
tion the drive with the 

afdisk.exe

 utility. (This utility is 

installed in the 

\scsi

 directory when you install EZ-SCSI.) If 

you are running Windows 3.1, use the Disk Partitioner pro-
gram found in the Adaptec SCSI program group. Disk Parti-
tioner is not supported under Windows 95.

Windows NT 3.51 PCs: Start Windows NT, and use the Disk 
Administrator program (in the Administrative Tools program 
group) to partition the drive.

OS/2 PCs: Currently, you cannot partition a SCSI drive con-
nected to the SlimSCSI adapter while OS/2 is running. There 
are two ways you can partition the drive:

1

Boot the PC to another operating system, such as DOS or 
Windows 3.x, and follow the instructions under the 
Windows 3.x or Windows 95 PCs bullet.

2

Partition and format the drive on another PC first.
