ST9235 Family Installation Guide, Rev. B 3 Setting master/slave jumpers Two drives may be controlled through a single drive controller cable with two connectors. In this case, one drive is designated as the master and the other is designated as the slave. As shown in Figure 1 on page 4, the jumpers on each drive must be set to identify which drive is master and which is slave. Connecting cables The ST9235 Family drives use a 44-pin AT interface connector cable with two rows of 22 female contact

ST9235 Family Installation Guide, Rev. B 5 Mounting the drive You can mount (and operate) a ST9235 family drive in any orientation. However, you must securely attach the drive to a rigid frame using four side-mounting screws or four bottom-mounting screws. Caution: To avoid damaging the drive: • Use M3X0.5 metric mounting screws only. • Do not insert mounting screws more than 0.150 inches (3.81 mm) into the mounting holes (except: 0.190 inches (4.82 mm) for the bottom-mounting holes of the S

Another method is to run the FINDTYPE.EXE utility program, available from Seagate Techni- cal Support services (on the SeaBOARD BBS) as described in Appendix C. The methods used to configure system BIOS vary from system to system. In many cases you can run a setup program from the DOS prompt. In other cases, you must initiate BIOS setup by pressing certain keys while the system is booting up. Within the setup program, t

In a few situations, none of the drive types specified in your BIOS setup program will match your drive, and the setup program will not provide an opportunity to specify a custom drive type. In this case, consider the third option described above — allowing your ST9235 family drive to mimic one of the BIOS-supported drive types. During the BIOS setup process, simply select a drive ty

If your system BIOS expects 4 bytes of ECC and the drive supplies a different number of bytes, some drive diagnostic programs may fail, typically resulting in time-out errors. Consult your system docu- mentation or call your system dealer or manufacturer for infor- mation on configuring your system to receive 11 bytes of ECC. Formatting and partitioning the drive Caution.

This process verifies the information written by the low-level format and creates file allocation tables (used to catalog and access files). Consult your DOS manual for FORMAT command options. During formatting, DOS system files should be transferred to one disc partition (generally the “C” d
