Serial ATA (SATA) Interface Disc Drives
Publication Number: 100402372, Rev. A, February 2006
Serial ATA interface disc drives are designed for easy installation. It is nor­mally not necessary to set any jumpers, terminators, or other sett ings on this drive for proper operation.
Y ou can use a Serial AT A drive in the same system with Parallel ATA drives as long as both interfaces are supported on the motherboard or with a host adapter. This makes it easy to add Serial ATA capability to your existing system without removing existing Parallel ATA disc drives.
What you need
• A Phillips screwdriver and four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws.
• A SATA interface cable (sold separately). Maximum length is 39 inches (1 meter).
• A SATA-compatible power cable or adapter (sold separately).
• A system with a SAT A connector on it, or a SATA host adapter and avail­able PCI slot in which to install the adapter.
Refer to your computer system documentation to see if your system sup­ports SATA on the motherboard and locate the SATA connector. If your system does not have a SATA connector on the mo therboard, you must purchase a SATA host adapter that is compatible with your computer and operating system and install it with the appropriate device driver according to the host adapter manufacturer’s installation instructions.
Note. See www.seagate.com/support/disc/sata/
that sell SATA components.
Handling precautions/electrostatic discharge protection
• Disc drives are fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Handle the drive only by the edges or frame.
• Drive electronics are extremely sensitive to static electricity. While installing the drive, wear a wrist strap and cable connected to ground.
• Turn off the power to the host system during installation.
• Do not disassemble the drive. Doing so voids the warranty. See the Warranty information on page 2.
• Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit board or to the top of the drive.
The easiest way to install your drive in a Windows system
To successfully install and obtain the maximum capacity from the drive, use DiscWizard for Windows disc drive installation software utility. This util­ity is available exclusively from Seagate. You can download this free disc drive installation software from our web site at w ww.sea or run the program directly from your web browser.
Note. Older versions of DiscWizard do not recognize Serial ATA model
To run DiscWizard:
Follow the instructions on the download page at www.sea ate a diskette and complete the installation.
If you cannot run DiscWizard, follow the instructions on this installation sheet to install and configure your drive.

Breather Hole
Do not cover or seal.
Caution. Do not cover, seal, or insert any object into this hole. If this hole
is covered, sealed, or penetrated by any object, the drive reliabil­ity may be compromised and could lead to permanent damage and voids the warranty.
Attaching cables and mounting the drive
1. Attach one end of the drive interface cable to the SATA interface con­nector on your computer’s motherboard or SATA host adapter (see your computer manual for connector locations).

(for troubleshooting)
Note. Serial ATA connectors are keyed to ensure correct orientation.
2. Attach the interface and power cables to the drive.
3. Secure the drive using four 6-32 UNC mounting screws in either the side-mounting or bottom-mounting holes. Insert the screws no more than 0.20 inches (5.08 mm) into the bottom-mounting holes and no more than 0.14 inches (3.55 mm) into the side-mounting holes.
Note. Do not overtighten the screws or use metric screws. This may dam-
age the drive.
Configuring the BIOS
Close your computer case and restart your computer. Your computer may automatically detect your new drive. If your computer does not automati­cally detect your new drive, follow the steps below.
1. Restart your computer. While the computer restarts, run the system setup program (sometimes called BIOS or CMOS setup). This is usu­ally done by pressing a special key, such as DELETE, ESC, or F1 dur­ing the startup process. See your system documentation for details about your particular system.
2. Within the system setup program, instruct the system to auto detect your new drive.
3. Save the settings and exit the setup program.
When your computer restarts, it should recognize y our new drive. If your system still doesn’t recognize your new drive, see the troubleshooting sec­tion on the back of this sheet.
Note. Some systems may see the drive and classify it as a SCSI device.
This is normal even though this is n ot a SC SI disc drive. This d oes not affect performance or capacity.

Installing the drive in Mac OS X systems
1. Install the drive in your system using the instructions provided on the front of this installation guide.
2. Insert the Mac OS X Install CD 1 (OS 10.3 and earlier) or Install DVD (OS 10.4). These operating system discs are provided by Apple and nor­mally ship with Apple computers.
3. Restart the computer while holding the C key (you can release the C key after you see the Apple logo appear on the screen). In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language after booting from these install discs.
4. If the new drive you just installed is the only disc in your system (replac­ing the original hard disc drive), click on “continue” and follow the on­screen instructions to install OS X on your new drive.
5. Select the drive you want to install in the left panel.
Warning.Be sure to select the correct disc before erasing the drive. Just as
the name implies, erasing erases all data on the selected drive.
Note. If you are installing the drive in an Apple G5 system and the system
does not recognize the drive, contact Seagate Technical Support using the phone number for your region listed in the “Seagate support services” section in this installation guide for information about com­patibility with Apple G5 systems.
6. Click on Erase and then select a volume format (Mac OS Extended is a commonly-used format), type a name of your choice in the Name field, and click on Erase again. Confirm your intentions by clicking Erase once more to begin formatting the drive.
Macintosh Troubleshooting

Windows 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 power connec­tor and interface cable are securely attached.
2. Does the computer recognize the drive? Verify that the drive is enabled in the system CMOS or setup program. If not, select the autode­tect option and enable it. If your drive has a problem, it may not be rec­ognized by the system. If the operating system do es not recognize the drive, you need to load your host adapter drivers.
3. I receive a “drive not detected” message. Why? Your SATA-equipped motherboard or host adapter may use a chipset that does not support SATA speed autonegotiation or other 3 Gbit feature. Install a jumper as shown in the following illustration to limit the data transfer rate to 1.5 Gbits per second and enhance compatibility with some computers.

6. I’m running Windows 98 and F DISK is no t repor ti ng th e fu ll cap a city of my drive. Why? You need to upgrade your version of FDISK if you are using the diskettes or CD that came with your original Windows 95 or 98 operating system. Microsoft provides a free downloadable FDISK upgrade.
