to low-level format the drive, use the format routine supplied with

your SCSI adapter. Refer to the SCSI adapter’s documentation

for instructions on how to low-level format the drive.

Partitioning

You must partition the drive into one or more logical drives before

you can use it.

Caution. Partitioning or formatting a drive at any level erases all

data on it. Make a backup copy of your existing files on

another drive before you repartition or reformat. Sea-

gate assumes no liability if you erase your data.

To partition the drive:

1. Insert a bootable diskette into Drive A. Turn the computer on.

2. After the computer has completed booting, remove the boot

diskette from Drive A. Insert a diskette that has the FDISK

utility into Drive A and type fdisk. Press

ENTER.

Note. If you have two or more drives in your system, the menu

displays five options. Option five allows you to select

the drive you want to partition. Make sure you select the

correct drive.

3. Select

create DOS partition or logical DOS drive

. Press

ENTER

4. Select

create primary DOS partition

. Use the maximum avail-

able size for your primary partition and make the partition

active for Drive C. This puts the entire drive on one partition

and allows you to load the DOS boot information on the drive.

Press

ENTER for each subsequent selection.

After all of the appropriate selections are made, the computer

restarts itself. You must place a bootable diskette into Drive A.
