4. Partition and format

Partition and format the drive using either of these two methods:

y Disk Manager 2000

i. Boot the Disk Manager 2000 installation utility ii. If the Disk Manager 2000 configuration matches

your new system configuration, continue. If the

system configuration is not a match or if you

want to proceed manually, select no. Then

verify the BIOS settings, cabling, and jumpers. Run Disk Manager 2000 again.

iii. Disk Manager 2000 determines available parti-

tion sizes based on the operating system to be installed. Select the partition sizes for your installation.

iv. Click “Finish” to complete the partitioning and

formatting of your drive.

y FDISK.EXE and FORMAT.EXE (or a similar parti-

tioning software from the operating system)

Follow the instructions provided with your operating system to partition the drive. If FDISK.EXE recognizes only 8.4 GB of a drive, the BIOS may not support Interrupt 13 Extensions.

Format the drive by following the instructions provided with FORMAT.EXE. Formatting will verify the hard disk media and create file allocation tables for the partition.

5. Boot up the computer

If the system does not boot up after the installation of the drive, check all the settings. If the system still fails to boot up, contact the Hitachi Global Storage Technologies Support Center.
