 NOTE
 Pins 1 and 2 are reserved; do not jumper!

 The Caviar can be assigned as either a single, master, or slave
 drive.

 Caviar drives are shipped with a jumper shunt in the neutral storage
 position (across pins 5 and 3).


 Dual Installations
 ------------------
 Dual Installations require a master/slave drive configuration, where
 one drive is designated as the primary (master) drive and the other
 is designated as the secondary (slave) drive. The Caviar drive is
 compatible in dual installations with other IDE drives that support
 a master/slave configuration.


 Jumper Settings
 ---------------
 The Caviar drive has a jumper block (J8) located next to the 40-pin
 connector on the drive. The Caviar can be assigned as either a
 single, master, or slave drive.

 Caviar drives are shipped with a jumper shunt in the neutral storage
 position (across pins 5 and 3).

 Single Drive Mode - If you are installing the Caviar drive as the
 only hard drive in the system, leave the jumper in the neutral
 storage position. Jumpers are not required for single drive
 installations. Note that even with no jumper installed, the Caviar
 checks the DRIVE ACTIVE/SLAVE PRESENT (DASP) signal to determine if a
 slave IDE drive is present.

 If you have a dual installation (two hard drives), you must designate
 one of the drives as the master and the other as the slave drive. The
 jumper pins on the J8 connector need to be configured for the dual
 installation.


 Master Drive Mode - To designate the drive as the master, place a
 jumper shunt on pins 5-6. With the Caviar configured as the master
 drive, the Caviar assumes that a slave drive is present. The jumper
 on pins 5-6 is optional if the slave drive follows the same protocol
 (Common Access Method AT Bus Attachment) as the Caviar.


 Slave Drive Mode - To designate the drive as the slave, place a
 jumper shunt on pins 3-4. When the Caviar is configured as the slave
 drive, the Caviar delays spin up for three seconds after power-up
 reset. This feature prevents overloading of the power supply during
 power-up.


 Cable Select (CSEL) - Caviar also supports the CSEL signal on the
 drive cable as a drive address selection. Place a jumper shunt on
 pins 1-2 to enable this option. When enabled, the drive address is 0
 (Master) if CSEL is low, or 1 (Slave) if CSEL is high.

 Do not install the CSEL jumper shunt when installing the Caviar drive
 in systems that do not support the CSEL feature.


 Alternate Jumper Settings for Drives Larger than 2.1 GB
 =======================================================
 On initial boot, the system BIOs may lock up on drives that have
 more than 4095 cylinders (driver larger than 2.1 GB). Alternate
 jumper setting have been provided for the Caviar drives that are
 larger than 2.1GB to overcome this system BIOS limitation. These
 jumper settings cause the drive to report 4092 cylinders (instead of
 the usual 4960,6296 or 7752) in Word 1 of the Identify Drive data.
 The true capacity is still reported in Word 54 and Word 60-61. All
 other Identify Drive data remains the same.

 Special software is required for DOS and Windows operating systems
 to utilize the full capacity of drives larger than 2.1 GB.

 The drive will operate in all axis (6 directions).

 Before you begin, gather these supplies:
 Computer system manual
 Operating system installation disks or CD-ROM
 Operating system manual
 Small Phillips screwdriver and flat-blade screwdriver
 Bootable DOS disk or Windows 95 startup disk
 Be sure to write down your serial and model numbers and the CCC
 code. These numbers are located on the drive label.


 Create a Bootable DOS Disk
 --------------------------
 For single hard drive installations, you must have a bootable DOS
 disk to install your new hard drive with EZ-Drive. Disk 1 of your
 standard DOS installation disk set is a bootable disk. If you do not
 have your original DOS installation disks, you can create a bootable
 DOS disk if you have a bootable C: hard drive.

 1. Insert a blank floppy disk into drive A.
 2. At the C: prompt, type format a:/s. Press ENTER.
    Create a Windows 95 Startup Disk
    For Windows 95 systems, you must have a bootable DOS or
    Windows 95 Startup disk to install your new hard drive with
    EZ-Drive. If using Windows 95, you should create a Windows 95
    Startup disk. To create a Windows 95 Startup disk you must have a
    bootable C: hard drive.

 1. Insert a blank floppy disk into drive A.
 2. From Windows 95, click My Computer.
 3. Click Control Panel.
 4. Click Add/Remove Programs.
 5. Select the Startup Disk table
 6. Click Create Disk. Follow the prompts to create a Windows 95
    Startup disk.


 Back Up Existing Drives
 -----------------------
 Protect your data by backing up your existing hard drive before
 installing your new Western Digital hard drive. Save the data to
 removable media such as floppy disks or tape. Most operating
 systems include a backup utility. Consult your operating system or
 utilities documentation for backup instructions.


 Unpacking and Handling the Hard Drive
 -------------------------------------
 Western Digital hard drives are precision instruments and should be
 handled with care during unpacking and installation. Hard drives are
 typically damaged by rough handling, shock, vibration, or
 electrostatic discharge (ESD). Be aware of the following precautions
 when unpacking and installing your Western Digital hard drive.
 Do not unpack your hard drive until you are ready to install it.
 After your Western Digital hard drive is unpacked, place the drive
 on the static shielding bag on a clean, level, padded work area.
 Your Western Digital hard drive comes packaged in a static
 shielding bag.

 Save the packing materials in case you need to return your hard
 drive. Shipping your hard drive in anything other than the
 original packaging or Western Digital supplied or approved materials
 will void your warranty.

 To avoid ESD problems, ground yourself by touching the metal
 chassis of the computer before handling the hard drive. Articles of
 clothing generate static electricity. Do not allow clothing to come
 in direct contact with the hard drive or circuit board components.
 Handle the hard drive by the sides only. Avoid touching the
 circuit board components. Do not drop or knock the hard drive.

 Before installation, do not stack hard drives or stand your Western
 Digital hard drive on its edge. You can, however, mount your hard
 drive horizontally or vertically.

 Do not remove the tape seal or any labels from the drive; the
 warranty will be void.


 Open Your Computer
 ------------------
 1. Turn off your system.
 2. Discharge static electricity by touching the metal chassis of the
    computer.
 3. Unplug your computer.
 4. Remove the computer's outside cover. Consult your computer
    system manual for details. Be sure to keep all screws and other
    parts together for easy reassembly.

 AC34000 AC24300 AC34300 AC25100 AC35100 AC36400 AC38400 AC310100


 Removing Existing Hard Drives
 -----------------------------
 If replacing an existing drive, follow these instructions.

 IMPORTANT. Be sure to turn off the system power and unplug the
 power cord.

 1. Disconnect the power cord and IDE interface cable.
 2. Remove screws and slide the hard drive out of the drive bay.
    Handle the hard drive with care. Be careful not to scratch, tear,
    or remove the tape seal on the drive; this will void the warranty.

 Step 1. Jumpers
 ---------------
 Western Digital hard drives have a jumper block (J8) located next to
 the 40-pin IDE connector on the hard drive. These jumpers select
 options on the hard drive. Your hard drive may have either a 6-pin or
 10-pin jumper block. The first 6 pins on each jumper block are
 identical. The additional four pins on the 10-pin jumper block are
 reserved for future enhancements.

 The Western Digital hard drive is factory set for single drive
 installation with a jumper in the neutral storage position (across
 pins 5-3 or 6-4). The Cable Select jumper option is usually not
 required. It needs special support in your system hardware.


 Single Hard Drive Installation
 ------------------------------
 If installing your new Western Digital hard drive as the only hard
 drive in your system, leave the jumper in the neutral storage
 position for possible future use. Jumpers are not required for single
 hard drive installations.


 Dual Hard Drive Installation
 ----------------------------
 If installing your new Western Digital hard drive with an existing
 drive on the same IDE interface cable, use a jumper to designate the
 master (C:) and the slave (D:) drive.

 If installing your new Western Digital hard drive with an existing
 drive on separate IDE interface cables, leave the jumper in the
 neutral storage position for possible future use. The system
 recognizes each drive as a single, stand-alone drive. Master/slave
 jumper settings are only used when there are two devices on the same
 IDE interface cable.

 Note for Apple Users: Apple systems do not support master/slave
 configurations. You can only install one EIDE hard drive to each
 port.

 This jumper should be repositioned to select the following options:
 To designate the Western Digital hard drive as the master drive in
 a two-drive system, place the jumper on pins 5-6.

 To designate the Western Digital hard drive as the slave drive in a
 two-drive system, place the jumper on pins 3-4.

 If installing your new Western Digital hard drive with a non-Western
 Digital hard drive, obtain jumper configuration information from
 the EZ-Drive software diskette, or your original drive manufacturer.


 Setting the Jumper
 ------------------
 Carefully place the jumper over the two pins. Push the jumper into
 place until it is firmly seated against the base of the jumper block.


 Step 2. Mounting Hardware
 -------------------------
 Inspect the bay to determine whether it is a 3.5-inch or 5.25-inch
 bay. The Western Digital hard drive fits into a 3.5-inch bay.

 If installing the Western Digital hard drive in a 5.25-inch bay, you
 must install the 5.25-inch mounting hardware that is provided. You
 might also need to install the system manufacturer's drive rails.

 Consult your system manual for instructions on how to install a
 3.5-inch bay.


 Installing the 5.25 Mounting Hardware
 -------------------------------------
 This step is not required for hard drive installations into a
 3.5-inch drive bay.

 1. Gently place the hard drive horizontally (circuit board side down)
    on top of the static shielding bag placed on a flat, padded
    surface.

 2. Attach the mounting brackets to the hard drive using the screws
    provided. For proper grounding, be sure to use ALL FOUR screws.

 IMPORTANT. Be sure to use the screws provided in your hard
            drive package. Screws that are too long damage circuit
            board components. Each screw must engage no more than six
            threads (3/16 inch).


 Step 3. Drive Rails (Optional)
 ------------------------------
 Some computer systems have 5.25-inch drive bays that require unique
 sliding drive rails to complete the hard drive installation.

 Because each system manufacturer has a different type of drive rail,
 rails are not included with Western Digital hard drives. If your
 system requires drive rails, contact the computer system
 manufacturer. The following list provides phone numbers for
 common system manufacturers.


 IMPORTANT. Your system must be turned off before connecting
            or disconnecting the power supply to the drive.

 1. Thread the cable through the empty drive bay and slide in the
    Western Digital hard drive.

 2. Attach the end of the 40-pin IDE interface cable to the 40-pin
    connector on the back of the Western Digital hard drive. Match
    pin socket 1 on the IDE cable (indicated by a color stripe on the
    cable) to pin 1 on the Western Digital hard drive.

 Note for Apple Users: Do not use the IDE interface cable supplied
 in this package in an Apple system; use an Apple-supplied interface
 cable only. Pin 40 on an Apple-supplied interface cable is indicated
 by a color stripe on the cable.

 3. Attach the computer system power supply cable to the 4-pin
    power connector on the back of the Western Digital hard drive.
    The 4-pin connector is keyed to ensure proper insertion.

 4. Single Installations: Attach the end of the 40-pin IDE interface
    cable from the Western Digital hard drive to the 40-pin
    connector on the motherboard or controller card. Match pin
    socket 1 (indicated by a color stripe on the cable) on the IDE
    interface cable (next to the drive power connector) to pin 1 on
    the motherboard or controller card.

 Dual Installations: Connect the two hard drives by using a 40-pin,
 three-connector IDE interface cable. A 40-pin, three-connector
 IDE interface cable is included in this hard drive package. Match
 pin socket 1 on the 40-pin, three-connector IDE cable to pin 1
 on the drive's connector.

 5. Mount the Western Digital hard drive in the drive bay using the
    four mounting screws provided. For proper grounding, be sure to
    use ALL FOUR screws.

   If your system does not have an extra power connector, purchase a
   Y-adapter from your computer dealer.

 6. Check all cable connections. Replace the system cover.

 7. Plug in your computer.

 8. See the EZ-Drive Software Installation section for hard drive
    setup instructions.

MAXTOR   DIAMOND MAX PLUS 2500

            INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR AN IDE DRIVE
            ---------------------------------------
 1. Install a 40 pin Data Cable ensuring that pin 1, which can be
    identified by the striped edge of the cable, is closest to the
    power connector on the drive.

 2. Install a DC power cable to the back of the drive.

 3. Verify the jumper configurations for Master/Slave operation
    (Note:  Master will be the bootable drive. The slave will not
    be bootable.) Also make sure the existing C: drive is jumped
    to be the Master in a two drive system, not the only drive in
    the system.

 4. Apply power to the computer.

 4a. When memory test is complete go into your system's Standard
     CMOS set-up.
     (Note: There are various ways to get into CMOS set-up, please
     refer to system's manual for instructions.)

 4b. If your system's BIOS supports a user programmable drive
     type, program the BIOS with the default parameters of your
     drive. If your system does not support a user programmable
     drive type choose parameters that closely match but do not
     exceed the drives MegaByte capacity. Escape from set-up
     then choose write to CMOS and exit.

 5. Boot from a DOS diskette that has FDISK.EXE and FORMAT.COM on
    it. At the A> prompt type in FDISK. At the menu options select
    option 1 to create a DOS partition. Another menu will appear
    and from those options choose 1 to create a Primary DOS
    partition. Select yes to make 1 large partition and it will
    automatically become active. Then escape from FDISK.

 6. At the A> prompt type in FORMAT C:/S This does a high-level
    format on the drive and transfers the system files in order for
    the drive to be bootable. (Note: IDE drives are low-level
    formatted from the manufacturer and only need a high-level
    format).

    To configure the drive as a slave drive repeat steps 1-4 and
    proceed with steps 5a. and 6a. as follows:

  5a. At the C> prompt type in FDISK. When the menu options appear
      select option 5 to switch to the second drive. Enter fixed
      disk drive number 2. Then choose option 1 to create a DOS
      partition, then select option 1 again to create a Primary DOS
      partition or option 2 to create an Extended DOS partition.
      (Note: C and D drives will always be the Primary partitions
