• Low-Level formatting: All Hawk 1LP wide family
drive models are low-level formatted at the factory
and do not require this step during installation. If an
installed drive is low-level formatted, all user data will
be lost.
Note: Seagate Technology assumes no liability for lost
user data.
• Partitioning and high level formatting: A drive can
be sub-divided into "partitions" which behave as
individual drives within the system. Consult the sys-
tem documentation for instructions on partitioning
and high level formatting. Information is also avail-
able in bookstores and libraries.
