NOTICE: To avoid possibly damaging the drive by ESD, ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface on the back of the

Check the documentation that accompanied the drive to verify that the drive is configured for your computer system. Change any
settings necessary for your configuration.
2. If you are installing an EIDE drive, configure the drive for the cable select setting.
You usually configure a drive for cable select by setting a jumper or switch, depending on the drive. For instructions on configuring the cable
select setting, see the documentation that accompanied the drive.
