Read and follow all instructions regarding the proper steps to be taken when using your Seagate ST1 Series disc drive.

The Seagate ST1 Series Flex interface disc drive models, ST650211FX and ST625211FX, are designed for embedded installation, or as a fixed storage solution. Follow the installation instructions provided on this instruction sheet. Your product’s manufacturer’s support website will have the most up-to-date information on installing and removing storage devices. Read and follow all instructions regarding the proper steps to be taken when using your Seagate ST1 Series disc drive. It is important to follow the handling precautions and electrostatic discharge protection information below when handling any electronic device.
