2.4.2 Alternate capacity jumper

This jumper lowers the drive capacity by setting the default translation to

4,092 cylinders and causes the drive to appear to your BIOS as having

a capacity of 2.1 Gbytes. Some BIOSs that only auto-detect may require

this jumper. Place a jumper on pins A and B of the J5 options jumper

block to enable this option. When installing this jumper, you may need

third-party partitioning software to achieve full capacity of the drive.

2.4.3 Cable-select option

Computers that use cable-select determine the master and slave drives

by selecting or deselecting pin 28, CSEL, on the interface bus. Master

and slave drives are determined by their physical position on the cable.

• The drive plugged into the I/O connector that carries the CSEL signal

is the master.

• The drive plugged into the I/O connector that does not carry the CSEL

signal is the slave.

To configure the drives for computers that use cable select:

• Install a jumper on pins E and F as shown in Figure 4 on page 20.

• Connect the drives to the cable as shown in Figure 5 on page 22.

2.4.4 Remote LED

You can connect a remote LED to pins C(–) and D(+) of the options

jumper block (J5). Do not install a shunt jumper on these pins.

Because the jumper block uses a 0.1-inch connector, you may need to

replace the current connector. Use Seagate connector part number

10562-001 or an equivalent.
