Warning. Formatting a drive erases all user data. Be sure that

you understand this principle before formatting any
hard disc drive. It is not necessary to format a drive
that previously has been used to store data, unless
your intention is to erase all user data.

Note. Seagate is not responsible for lost user data.

1.

Turn on DC power.

2.

Boot the system from a system floppy disc or from a previ-
ously installed hard disc drive if there is one.

3.

Format the disc drive. Elite 23 disc drives are designed to
operate with a variety of operating systems. Please refer to
your system or SCSI controller manual for information about
formatting and setting up the drive. Some quick desktop
system notes are provided below.

Note. Refer to your system or utility manual for detailed instruc-

tions)

• DOS. Set the drive type in CMOS to “

Zero,” “None,” or “No

hard drive installed.” Use FDISK.EXE and FORMAT.EXE.
Systems that have operating system Windows 95 release
950B or later do not need to partition the drive.

• Macintosh. Use a third-party drive utility (Apple’s HD Setup

utility only works with drives having special Apple firmware).
