Medalist 1270 Installation Guide, July 1995

Introduction

Thank you for choosing a Seagate
guide is to assist you with installing your new hard drive. Its
organization outlines the complete installation process from han-
dling the drive and drive application in Before you begin... to
offering troubleshooting suggestions and technical support infor-
mation. The topics discusses are:
Handling your drive (see Before you begin...)
Configuring the drive
Attaching cables to the drive
Mounting the drive
Configuring the computer
Troubleshooting
Where to call for Seagate technical support
Seagate provides installation software, EZ-Drive, and a 32-bit
disk access driver for Windows, SEG32BIT.386, that allows the
computer to surpass the 528-Mbyte barrier when it is imposed.
The software is stored on the drive and must be transferred to a
diskette in Drive A before you partition and format the drive. A
program called Seamove is provided to make the transfer easy.
We hope your installation goes smoothly, but if complications
arise, a list of common symptoms and solutions is provided in the
troubleshooting section. If the problem persists, contact your
dealer first. Your dealer is familiar with system integration and the
conflicts that arise. If you need additional help or information
about Seagate products, Seagate technical support numbers are
provided.
