Handling precautions/electrostatic discharge protection
• ST1.3 Series disc drives are fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Handle the drive only by the edges or by the finger grip area shown in Figure 1. Keep the device in the packaging until you are ready to install it and between uses to minimize handling damage.
• It may be necessary to turn off the power to the host product during installation. Refer to your product’s user manual for details regarding installation and removal of media devices.
• Do not disassemble the drive. Doing so voids the warranty. See the warranty information on page 2.
• Do not expose the drive to extreme temperatures or humidity conditions.
• Do not apply pressure, write on, or attach labels to the top or bottom of the drive.
• Do not cover or otherwise obstruct the breather hole on the top of the drive. (See Figure 3)
• Keep the drive away from strong magnetic fields to avoid data loss.

Installing your ST1.3 Series ZIF interface model disc drive
Follow installation instructions for media devices provided in your product’s user manual to determine if your Seagate ST1.3 Series disc drive is compatible. See Figure 3 for drive dimensions. Follow all handling precautions/electrostatic discharge protection suggestions when installing any drive.
Follow the precaution when installing and removing your ST1.3 Series Flex interface disc drive:
• Drive electronics are extremely sensitive to static electricity. Caution should be exercised when handling any electronic device. Wear an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) ground strap when integrating the flex cable into host systems. Improper handling may cause ESD damage to the ST1.3 Series disc drive’s electronics.
• Do not bend the cable sharply as this may cause the electrical traces to be broken. See Figure 4.
• When the drive is powered on, do not physically remove the flex cable from the host connector. Power down the system first before removing the drive.

Troubleshooting
If your drive is not working properly, these troubleshooting tips may help solve the problem.
1. Does the drive spin up? A spinning drive produces a faint whine and clicking noise. If your drive does not spin, check that the drive is securely inserted.
2. Does the computer recognize the drive? Verify that the drive is enabled in the system CMOS or setup program. If not, select the auto detect option and enable it. If your drive has a problem, it may not be recognized by the system. If the operating system does not recognize the drive, you need to load your host adapter drivers.
3. Does ScanDisk find the drive defect-free? ScanDisk is a utility located on your Windows startup diskette that scans the drive for defects. If defects are detected, this may be an indication of a problem.
4. Why does my computer hang on startup? Verify that your system is ATA compatible. You need either an ATA-compatible motherboard connector or ATA host adapter to use this drive.
