Note: Newer systems will typically display a message (e.g., press DEL to Enter Setup) identifying how to

access the SETUP (BIOS) program.

B Once the SETUP (BIOS) program is active, do one of the following to set the BIOS parameters for the

Maxtor hard drive.

1 Enter the BIOS menu where the hard drive definitions are displayed, select the correct entry (Primary

Master, Primary Slave, Secondary Master or Secondary Slave or their equivalents) to set the parameters

for the Maxtor hard drive.

If the SETUP program provides an “AUTO DETECT” capability, use this feature to detect the

Maxtor hard drive. If the SETUP program does not have AUTO DETECT, set the drive parameters as

defined in 2 below. Typically, this feature is available for each individual IDE device. It may be

necessary to exit the BIOS, re-boot the system and re-enter the BIOS before the AUTO DETECT

operation will take effect.

IMPORTANT After the SETUP program has detected the hard drive, verify that the Logical Block

Addressing (LBA) mode is enabled for the drive - as not all BIOS versions set this feature during the

AUTO DETECT process.

Comment: When LBA is enabled, some BIOS programs (typically Award) will change the values of

the cylinders and heads by dividing the cylinders by 2, 4, 8 or 16 and multiplying the heads by the same

value. This operation will not change the capacity of the hard drive.

If the system correctly detects the drive and does not hang during the boot process proceed to Section

9, If the system hung during the POST proceed to Section 8. If Auto Detect did not find the drive

and no error message was presented proceed to step 2 below.

2 Enter the BIOS menu where the hard drive definitions are displayed and select the appropriate entry

(Primary Master, Primary Slave, Secondary Master or Secondary Slave – or their equivalents) for the

Maxtor hard drive. If the SETUP program does not provide an AUTO DETECT capability, the drive

parameters must be set using the User Definable Type (UDT).

Set the Cylinder, Head and Sector values with the values listed on the drive label. The drive label is

located on the top cover of the drive. The fields LZone (Landing Zone) and WPcom (Write Pre-

comp) are not used by the Maxtor hard drive. These values may be either 0 or the values set in BIOS.

Only the cylinder, head and sector values listed in the table must be entered. All other values may be zero

(0). Set the LBA mode to enabled for this drive. Refer to the system user’s manual or contact the system

manufacturer for information on enabling LBA.

If the SETUP program does not provide the UDT, set the BIOS to the drive type with the largest

capacity of those listed in the BIOS.

C After the drive parameters are entered, follow the SETUP program procedures to save the settings and exit

the SETUP program. After changing BIOS settings, saving the values and exiting, the SETUP program

should force the system to re-boot.

If you are not sure how the UDT is defined in the BIOS, refer to the computer user’s manual or contact

the system manufacturer. Companies like Compaq, IBM and HP use their own unique definitions and

setup procedures.
