Formatting the drive

Warning. Formatting a drive erases all user data. Be sure that you understand this principle before formatting any hard disc drive.

It is not necessary to format a drive which has previously been used to store data, unless your intention is to erase all user data.

1.Turn on DC power.

2.Boot the system from a system floppy disc or from a previously installed hard disc drive if there is one.

3.Format the disc drive. The Barracuda 2LP disc drive is designed to operate with a variety of operating systems; therefore, please refer to your system or SCSI controller manual for information about format- ting and setting up the drive.
