X= PK is a Parking position. The presence or absence of this jumper has no effect on the drive. Labeling may
indicate to place this jumper when configuring as a slave. This is to provide for retention of the jumper in the event
that it is needed later.
*Note: Cable Select (CS) utilizes a special cable configuration where the drive setting (Master or Slave) is
determined by its position on the 40-pin ATA cable. In this type of configuration both drives will have their jumper
set to CS. Cable Select is utilized on some OEM systems and is typically required for systems utilizing Ultra ATA/66.
For Ultra ATA/66 compliant cables, the master drive is placed on the outside (end) cable connector and the slave
drive is placed on the intermediate cable connector.

Jumper Locations
The Maxtor® Fireball™ lct08 disk drive has only one location where user configurable jumpers are found. The
jumper block is incorporated into the ATA / IDE cable connector. Using the jumper pins you can establish the drive
Master/Slave configuration.
The Maxtor Fireball lct08 was developed by Quantum Corporation prior to its merger with Maxtor.
BIOS Settings
The following BIOS parameters are provided for customers needing to manually configure the Fireball lct08 disk
drive. Both base 2 and base 10 capacity values are displayed.
Logical Cylinders
Logical Heads
Logical Sectors/Track
Total Logical Sectors
Base 10 Capacity
Base 2 Capacity
*Note: ATA (IDE) drives with a physical capacity greater than 8.4GB have their default logical C/H/S values limited
to 16,383/16/63 as per the ATA-4 specification. Drives greater than 8.4GB in capacity require LBA support.
Capacity could be restricted to 8.4GB (or less) due to system BIOS limitations. Check with your system or
motherboard manufacturer to determine if your BIOS supports LBA mode for ATA hard drives greater than 8.4GB.
