[. . . ] SS - Stagger Spin Pins 21-22 - For most configurations this option is not utilized. Most current SCSI host adapters offer a Start Unit command enable or disable, which supersedes the functionality of the SS jumper setting. When the Delay Spin (DS) jumper is enabled on the drive, the Start Unit command from the SCSI host adapter will send Start Unit commands to all devices on the bus at pre-determined intervals. [. . . ] All SCSI devices must have an individual ID on the SCSI bus (there is no Master/Slave setting). Fault LED and Busy Out Jumpers Typical installations do not require the use of the Fault LED and Busy Out jumpers. The Busy Out signal is usually supplied through the PCI bus to the PC motherboard's Busy indicator LED. If connecting the Busy Out jumper for a drive installed in an external case, please refer to the wiring documentation supplied by the manufacturer of the case. Connection of the Fault LED is not recommended in internal or external installations.

Maxtor recommends the use of Active LVD terminators and 68-pin twisted pair cabling. SCSI host adapter manufacturers usually supply proper cabling and termination with the purchase of an LVD SCSI host adapter. Attention: The Rear Jumper Option Connector is an OEM specific connector. Most installations will never use the jumper options on this connector. Always configure the drive using the jumpers at the Front Jumper Option Connector.

Installing Drive Inside of Your Computer System Make sure your computer is powered down before installing the drive. The following illustrations are of typical computer systems and hard drive mounting styles. Be sure to secure the drive to the device bay with all four screws (included). The drive should be oriented with its printed circuit board facing down.

Please refer to the SCSI adapter card user guide for additional recommendations on data cable placement and SCSI termination requirements. Caution: Do not force or rock the connectors into their sockets on the hard drive. Push them in straight until they are seated firmly. 68-pin Drive Connector Ultra-2 LVD/SE Cable Power Supply Cable (3-Pin or 4-Pin) DC Power Connector Bevel Connect to SCSI Host Adapter Card Ultra-2 LVD/SE Cable Active 2 LVD Terminator Standard Cabling for Single SCSI Drive in System (Ultra-2 LVD/SE cable connections) 5 Partitioning and Formatting 6 Product Registration Maxtor Limited Warranty Maxtor's warranty obligations are limited to the terms set forth: Maxtor warrants to the original consumer purchaser that new Maxtor SCSI products will be free from defects in material and workmanship for 5 years from the date of original purchase. For replacement disk drives the warranty on the replacement drive is the remainder of the warranty on the original drive or 90 days, whichever is longer. For SCSI disk drives obtained under the Maxtor Upgrade Program, the warranty period is 5 years commencing on the date Maxtor ships the drive to the customer. [. . . ] · Windows NT/2000: Boot your system from the installation floppy disks provided with the OS to partition and format the drive. If you do not have the original installation floppies, you can create them using your Windows installation CD. · Windows XP: Boot your system from the Windows XP installation CD to partition and format the drive.
