Formatting the drive

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

It is not necessary to format a drive that has been previously used to store data, un- less 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 drive. The Barracuda 4 disc drive is designed to operate with a variety of operating sys- tems. Your system or SCSI controller manuals have information about formatting and setting up the drive.
