ST3390N, ST3655N Installation Guide, Rev. A 1 Read before you begin... Application. Your drive is designed for IBM AT and compatible personal computers, Sun, Macintosh and other SCSI systems. Turn off the system power before attempting any installation. Static discharge. Observe the following precautions: • Keep the drive in its static-shielded bag until you are ready to complete the installation. Do not attach any cables to the drive while it is in its static-shielded bag. • Handle the drive b

SCSI I/O termination consists of three resistor packs, called termina- tors, that plug into sockets on the printed circuit board. The terminating resistors are shown in Figure 1. If you are installing only one drive, leave the terminators installed. If you are installing multiple drives, remove the terminators from all

If you removed the terminating resistors from the drive according to the instructions in step 2, skip this step. If you are either: • using Fast SCSI transfer rates, or • not using Fast SCSI transfer rates, and both ends of the I/O cable are terminated by resistors of equal value, use active termination by installing a jumper on pins 1 and 2 of the active/passive termination jumpe

Turn off the system power. 2. Put on a grounded wrist strap. 3. Connecting a remote LED. Remote LED pins are located on two separate jumper blocks: the options jumper block and the user-configuration jumper block. Attach a two-pin remote LED connector to either jumper block, as follows: • User-configuration jumper block: pins

Attach one end of the cable to the drive interface connector and the other end to the interface connector on the host system motherboard or the host adapter. If you are installing multiple drives, use a daisy-chain cable. Verify that pin 1 of the interface cable is matched to pin 1 of the interface connector on the drive and on the host. Pin 1 is usually denoted by a stripe on the side of the ribbon cabl

10 ST3390N, ST3655N Installation Guide, Rev. A CMOS setup for AT systems When you start up your drive for the first time, enter the CMOS SETUP routine. This routine enables you to define a new drive in the system BIOS. However, because the SCSI host adapter BIOS handles all I/O procedures, you should not attempt to define the drive type in the system BIOS. Instead, set the CMOS, or system setup, to drive type zero, or the no hard drive installed option. Note. If you are installing your drive in

ST3390N, ST3655N Installation Guide, Rev. A 11 If you choose to low-level format your drive, use the DOS DEBUG utility. The most common DEBUG low-level formatting command is g=c800:5. Verify the BIOS address (c800) and the offset (5) with your host adapter manual. Caution. If you format a drive at any level, you erase all your data. Back up the drive first. Seagate assumes no liability if you destroy your data. Partitioning If you are using a version of DOS before Version 4.0, the capacity of yo

12 ST3390N, ST3655N Installation Guide, Rev. A To high-level format the drive, perform the following operations: 1. Use the FORMAT utility to high-level format the drive. Refer to your DOS manual for the FORMAT command options. 2. If you are formatting the boot drive, copy the necessary system files to the drive. In Unix, high-level formatting creates the i-node used for file access information. Drive formatting and partitioning are both performed by a single operating system utility. Refer to y

For each ribbon cable, verify that pin 1 of the cable is matched to pin 1 of the connector. Pin 1 is usually denoted by a stripe on the side of the ribbon cable. Caution. Do not randomly reverse-plug the cables. This can damage some systems. When connecting the diskette drive, make sure you use a control cable for a diskette drive and
