Master, Slave and Cable Select Settings with Cylinder Limitation Enabled

If the BIOS was set to AUTO DETECT, follow the instructions in Section 7 to prepare the hard drive using the MaxBlast installation software.

If other BIOS settings were used, access the system BIOS SETUP program and set the parameters to a User Definable Type with 4,092 cylinders, 16 heads and 63
sectors per track for the Maxtor hard drive. Then follow the instructions for setting the BIOS in Section 7 then Section 8 to prepare the hard drive with MaxBlast software.

If the system hangs during the boot process after installing the Maxtor hard drive – either before or after setting the system BIOS – the system many have a
BIOS with a cylinder limitation. This may occur for hard drives that exceed 2.1 GB. If this happens,
do the following:

Turn the system OFF.

Install the cylinder limitation jumper (J46) on the drive. The figure below shows the  Maxtor hard drive configured as a Master or Slave device with the
cylinder limitation jumper installed.

IMPORTANT: When the Cylinder Limitation jumper (J46) is installed, the Maxtor hard drive must be prepared using MaxBlast installation software.

If a MaxBlast software installation diskette was not included with the hard drive, the MaxBlast software may be downloaded from Maxtor’s Internet home
page at http://www.maxtor.com. MaxBlast must be downloaded to a hard drive.

The instructions for creating the MaxBlast bootable diskette are available for viewing and printing from the MaxBlast download page.
