Drive Setup

AppleÕs Drive Setup is the primary software tool used to work with

EIDE hard drives in Power Computing computers. Use this software to:

¥ Mount drives

¥ Format new and replacement hard drives

¥ Partition hard drives

Drive Setup cannot operate on the drive from which it is running. The

most convenient way to use Drive Setup is to boot the computer from

the Power CD before launching the software.

Mounting drives

Hard drives and other devices may be mounted (placed on the desk-

top) at any time.

To mount an EIDE hard drive:

¥ Select the drive to be mounted by clicking once on the drive in the

main window.

¥ Select

Mount Volumes from the Functions menu to mount the

drive.

Updating drivers

All disks contain some invisible Þle called drivers, which instruct the

computer how to interact with that disk. Update this driver Þle if the

disk is not mounting properly or if the Disk First Aid utility cannot suc-

cessfully repair a disk.
