Introduction

This manual is organized to assist you in the installation and operation of your Seagate Hawk 2LP Family disc drive. Family models are listed in Hawk 2LP Family Product Information section. It also provides information to aid in obtaining service for the drive.

Before attempting any installation, please read through all applicable sections of this document, including all warnings and cautions.

Warning.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with these instructions, may cause interference to radio communications.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) considerations

The drive(s) described herein, as delivered, are designed for system integration and installation into a suitable enclosure prior to use. As such, the drive(s) described herein are supplied as a sub-assembly and are not subject to Subpart J of Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations nor the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications. However, the unit has been tested using proper shielding and grounding and found to be compliant with the Class A limits of the FCC Rules and the Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

2 Hawk 2LP Family Installation Guide, Rev. A _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The physical design characteristics of the drive(s) described herein, serve to minimize EMI radiation when installed in an enclosure that provides reasonable shielding. As such, the drive(s) are capable of meeting the Class B limits of the FCC Rules and the Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Note. It is the end users' responsibility to assure that the

drive(s) described herein meet the appropriate EMI requirements of their system. Shielded I/O cables may be required if the enclosure does not provide adequate shielding. If I/O cables are external to the enclosure, shielded cables should be used, with the shields grounded to the enclosure and to the host controller.

Hawk 2LP Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 3 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Before you begin

Verify that the system is switched off and disconnected from main power before any installation is attempted.

Protect yourself, the drive, and your valuable programs and data by reading the following cautions and warnings.

• Do not tamper with sealed top cover. Doing so voids your warranty. The drive contains no user serviceable components. See Product Repair section for more information.

• Visually inspect the shipping container for any obvious damage.

• Verify all parts listed on shipping bill are received with the equipment. Discrepancies or damage should be reported to the shipping company.

• Inspect drive for possible shipping damage. All claims of this type should be filed promptly with the transporter involved. Save original packing materials to be used when reshipping.

• When transporting or shipping a drive or system, please ensure that they are correctly packed in original Seagate approved (or equivalent) container and shipped via an airride carrier experienced in handling computer equipment.

• Do not unpack drive from its static shielded bag until you are ready to install it in the system.

• Always handle the drive by the frame or casting.

• Do not touch Printed Circuit Board (PCB) or the I/O connector pins.

• Never apply pressure to the PCB or to the drive top cover

Caution. The circuit assemblies and components contained

in this equipment can be degraded or destroyed by Electrostatic Overstress (EOS) or by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

Hawk 2LP Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 5

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Static electrical charges can accumulate quickly on personnel, clothing and synthetic materials. The electrostatic fields due to these charges when brought in close proximity to susceptible circuit assemblies and components, can result in degraded reliability or immediate failure of the affected component or assembly.

To insure optimum reliable equipment operation, it is required that technical support personnel discharge themselves by wearing a grounding strap around the wrist and be connected to a grounding terminal while working in the vicinity of, and while handling EOS/ESD susceptible assemblies/parts. If unavailable, ground yourself frequently by touching the metal chassis of the system before handling any components (this helps only if the system is connected to a ground).

Safety instructions

1. The disc drive(s) are to be installed in a customer supplied

enclosure where the surrounding air does not exceed

2. Four (4) 6-32 UNC-2A screws are required for installation.

Maximum screw length into side of drive is 0.15 inches (3.81 mm). Maximum screw length into bottom is 0.20 in. (5.08 mm). Screw tightening torques is 6.0 lb-in (.675 NM) max with minimum thread engagement of 0.12 in (3.00 mm).

3. The power requirements are shown in the Product Infor-

mation section.

4. The power supply must satisfy the safety requirements for

SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) circuits.

5. Service is to be provided by trained Seagate service

personnel.

6. The incorporation of the disc drives listed in this guide into

a customer enclosure must meet the appropriate safety requirements of the country in which it is used (e.g. UL 1950, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 950-M89, DIN VDE 0805:1993 and EN60950: 1992 (IEC 950).

Note

Power must be off when connecting or disconnecting.

Installation Overview

Installation of the drive can be divided into distinct phases. Some of these may not be applicable to all system installation requirements. Refer to the individual drive installation sections for specific information on your drive model.

• Drive configuration: Select those drive features that are appropriate to install the drive in the system. This is done by installing or removing user configuration jumpers found on the drive PCB.

• Mechanical installation: After setting up the drive configuration the drive must be mechanically installed into the host system and the power and I/O cables attached. Previously mentioned precautions should be observed.

• CMOS configuration: SCSI drives should not be defined in the CMOS. The SCSI host adapter uses its own BIOS to handle the Input/Output procedures. The CMOS setting for SCSI drive is either drive type zero, or the no drive installed option.

Hawk 2LP Family Installation Guide, Rev. A 9 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

• Low-Level formatting: All Hawk 2LP family drive models are low-level formatted at the factory and do not require this step during installation. If an installed drive is low-level formatted, all user data will be lost.

Note: Seagate Technology assumes no liability for lost user

data.

• Partitioning and high level formatting: A drive can be sub-divided into "partitions" which behave as individual drives within the system. Consult the system documentation for instructions on partitioning and high level formatting. Information is also available in bookstores and libraries.
