Please visit www.samsunghdd.com (Utility Dowmload) and use the Disk Manager for solving the hardware barrier.

Although my drive is bigger than 32GB and Disk Management recognize the hard drive, it is only shown as 32 GB.

There are two ways for setting jumpers.

One is the general jumper setting for recognizing the drive's own capacity, the other is the 32GB clip jumper setting for recognizing only 32GB capacity whatever the real capacity is.It seems that you have set the 32GB clip jumper.

Although my drive supports up to UDMA 133, it is recognized as UDMA 100. Please visit www.samsunghdd.com and use the HUTIL for confirming or switching the UDMA mode on your drive if your motherboard supports UDMA-6. Because some motherboards have a problem for supporting UDMA-6(133), we set UDMA mode as UDMA-5(100) during the production. You can switch the drive's UDMA modes with the HUTIL. (HUTIL has been uploaded onto www.samsunghdd.com)

I am looking for a Software & Firmware (mainly about drivers) but I found nothing.

Where I can find I want ?

We don't release any firmwares.

Because the product has been already optimized with its own configurations. IDE (PATA & SATA) drive does not need any drivers. You just have to make a partition and format your drive for using.

Please make sure whether you had partitioned and formatted.

First of all, you must partition and format for recognizing the new drive in the Windows Explorer.

Within Win98 series, please use the Fdisk.

Within Win2000 & Win-XP, please use the Disk Management.

When installing Win2000 or Win-XP, the installation process includes the new drive in the Windows Explorer.

To open the Disk Management

1Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.

2Double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management.

3In the left panel, expand Storage, and then expand Disk Management.
