Multimode SE/LVD
Models: DDRS-39130 DDRS-34560
Handling precautions
Ÿ Do not open the electrostatic discharge (ESD) bag
containing the drive until required.
Ÿ Do not apply pressure on the drive during handling
or installation.
Ÿ To prevent damage from impact or vibration always
set the drive down gently.
Ÿ Handle the drive carefully by the edges. Do not
touch the exposed printed circuit board or any
electronic components.
Ÿ Do not press on the top or bottom of the drive.
Ÿ Do not cover the breather hole! Covering the
breather hole may result in loss of data.
Ÿ Save the packaging materials including the ESD
bag in the event that the drive must be returned.

6. Assign a SCSI address to the drive. Address 7 is
normally reserved for the SCSI controller. Refer to
the illustration below, install the appropriate
jumper(s) on the Option Jumper Block.

Installing the drive
This guide provides instructions for the installation of a
multimode SE/LVD hard disk drive.
1. Backup all data.
2. Record the serial number and part number of your
hard drive for future reference.
3. Turn off the computer and remove the computer
system cover.
4. Before handling the hard disk drive, discharge any
static electricity from you and your clothing. With
one hand touch an unpainted metal surface on your
computer chassis, then touch the ESD bag with the
other hand for a minimum of two seconds. Remove
the ESD bag from the hard drive.
5. Unplug the computer.

PLEASE NOTE: If the Ultrastar multimode SE/LVD
drive is attached to a SCSI bus with SE device(s), the
drive operates in SE mode without installing the forced

8. For a 68 pin drive attach the power cable and
ensure that one end of the SCSI cable is connected
to the controller card. Attach an LVD terminator to
the other end of the cable. If the 68 pin drive is the
only device on the SCSI cable, plug the drive into
the connector immediately preceding the LVD
terminator. Additional drives may be attached to
any unused connector. (Drives with 80 pins are
plugged into backplanes of servers and require no
cables.)
9. Using the appropriate brackets or rails, mount the
drive with any of its six surfaces facing down.
Retrieve any loose screws or parts from within the
computer.
10. Ensure proper routing of cable(s).
11. Plug in your computer. Do not turn it on.
12. Insert the operating system (OS) setup diskette into
the floppy drive.
13. Turn on your computer.
Ÿ If the system boots up, turn off your computer
and replace the cover.
Ÿ If your system does not boot up, turn off your
computer and check all connections and settings.
Turn on your system and reboot.
Ÿ If the system still fails to boot up, turn off your
computer and remove the new drive to return the
system to its original configuration and call the
IBM Hard Disk Drive Technical Support Center.
Partitioning and formatting (using DOS 5.0 or later)
CAUTION: When partitioning and formatting a system
with more than one hard disk drive be sure that you
select the correct hard drive. Partitioning and formatting
will destroy any previous data.
1. Insert the OS setup diskette into the floppy drive.
2. Turn on the computer.
3. At the DOS prompt type FDISK, press [ENTER], and
follow the instructions on the screen.
4. To format the primary system drive, type FORMAT
C:/S at the DOS command prompt and press
[ENTER]. The /S parameter makes C: the operating
system startup drive.
5. To format a second drive (not C:), type FORMAT X:
(where X is the drive letter assigned by FDISK) at the
DOS prompt and press [ENTER].
6. Remove the diskette and restart your computer. The
partitioning and formatting is complete.
7. Install the operating system.
