DiscWizardis Seagate’s exclusive Windows program that is included with your drive for easy drive installation. You can use this software if you already have a bootable hard drive in your computer and you are running Windows 98 or Windows 95.

Run DiscWizard before installing your drive for customized step-by-step instructions for your system.

To run DiscWizard:

Select Run from the Windows Start menu and type x:\setup, where x is the drive letter of your diskette or CD-ROM.

If you cannot run DiscWizard, follow the instructions on this installation sheet to install and configure your drive.

 The Easiest Way to Install Your Drive What You Need

Phillips screwdriver and four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws

A standard 40-pin ATA interface cable, or an 80-conductor cable to run Ultra ATA 66 (max length: 18 inches)

An unused drive power cable for your new drive

To run DiscWizard: Ultra ATA/66 Requirements

The drive can support transfer rates up to 66 Mbytes per second in Ultra ATA/66 mode. For your drive to run in this mode you need the following:

A computer that supports UDMA modes 3 and 4

A 40-pin 80-conductor cable (available from your dealer)

A software utility to activate Ultra ATA/66. Seagate provides a utility called UATA66.exe that is included on your CD, or you can download it from our Web site at www.seagate.com.
