Seagate ST33220A, ST36540A, ST35130A warranty What YOU Need

WHAT YOU NEED

•Straight-edge and Phillips screwdrivers

•Drive mounting screws

•An ATA host adapter and interface cable (max. length:

18 inches) with enough connectors for your drives

•An unused drive power cable for your new drive

•A bootable DOS system diskette (Seagate recommends using DOS Version 5.0 or later.)

•If you are mounting this 3.5-inch drive in a 5.25-inch drive bay, you need a mounting adapter or frame kit. Also, you may need drive mounting rails if your drive bay is not designed for direct mounting.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

•Make sure your computer is turned off before you open the case.

•Read the handling precautions at the right and inspect the drive to make sure that it is not damaged.

•Save your foam-lined Seagate disc drive box. This box has been approved by Seagate for shipping a Seagate disc drive. Using any other container or packing material voids your drive warranty.

HANDLE WITH CARE!

Disc drives are extremely fragile. Do not drop or jar your drive.

Keep the drive in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it.

Protect your drive from static discharge by making sure you are well grounded before touching the drive. We rec- ommend wearing a grounded wrist strap throughout the installation process. Do not touch the connectors or any part of the printed circuit board.

Always handle the drive by its edges or frame.

Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit board or the top of the drive.

3Slide the drive carefully into the drive bay. Secure the drive with four 6-32 UNC-2A mounting screws in either the side- mounting holes or the bottom-mounting holes. Do not over- tighten the screws. The screws should be inserted no more than 0.22 inch into the bottom mounting holes and no more than 0.14 inch into the side mounting holes. Do not use metric screws.

Note. If you are mounting the drive in a 5.25- inch drive bay, you need a mounting adapter or frame kit. Contact your computer dealer. Some

computers also require drive mounting rails, which can be obtained from your distributor or computer manufacturer.

4Attach a power cable to each drive. If your computer does not have an unused power connector, you can purchase a Y-shaped power cable from your computer dealer.

5Check all cable connections and then replace your com- puter cover. Continue to step 2 below.
