Hitachi DK23BA Quick Installation Manual

Quick Installation Guide
 
 
2.5 inch Hard Disk Drives ATA/IDE
   Handling Precautions 
1. Do not press on the drive. Hold the drive by the sides only, do not apply any 
    force to the drive during handling or installation 
2. Always handle the drive with care to prevent damage from shock, vibration or 
    electrostatic discharge (ESD). Do not touch the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). 
3. Electrostatic Discharge. Static electricity can damage the drive. Before handling 
    the drive, touch an unpainted metal surface for a few seconds to drain any static 
    electricity from your body. 
4. Keep the original packaging and static-protective bag in case the drive has to 
    be returned. 
Quick Installation Procedure 
It is advisable to backup all data before proceeding with the installation. If your 
system BIOS cannot handle large capacity drives (over 540MB, or 8.4GB) you 
may need to use a disk overlay program such as Ontrack’s Disk Manager 
software. Contact your Hitachi supplier or the local Hitachi office. 
Dimensions / Screw Locations 
Check that the dimensions and screw hole locations are correct 
for your system. 
   Setting the Jumpers
 
1. In a one drive system configure the new drive as a Master with no jumpers 
    attached. 
2. In a two drive system, one drive must be designated as Master and the other 
    as Slave. 
3. When installing the new drive as a Slave set the jumper to position A-B. Check 
    the Master drive to determine if a jumper change is required to indicate Slave 
    present. 
4. Before selecting Cable Select (CSEL D-B) consult your system manual to see 
    if this is supported.
    Attaching the Drive 
1. Turn off the computer, unplug the power cord and remove the notebook battery. 
2. Open the cover. 
3. Match pin 1 of the 44 pin cable, usually denoted by a red stripe, to pin 1 of the 
    drive interface connector, shown above. 
4. Mount the drive securely using 4 M3 (metric) screws with a maximum screw 
    length of 2.5 mm. 
   Configuring your Computer 
1. Reinstall the notebook battery, plug in the power cord and turn on the computer. 
2. The computer may detect a configuration change and prompt you to proceed to 
    the Setup screen. 
3. If it does not, enter the Setup screen using the key selection. Refer to the 
    onscreen instructions or the computer handbook. 
4. Select “Auto Detect” for the new drive, if your system supports this feature. If it 
    does not , select the “User Definable Type” and enter the parameters from the 
    table below. 
5. If you cannot see the full capacity of the drive use Disk Manager. 
6. Partition and Format the drive, then install your data. 
If, after complete installation, your system will not boot up, recheck all settings. If 
the system still fails to boot up, contact your supplier’s technical support.
