Application. Your Seagate®drive is designed for IBM AT and

compatible personal computers. It uses the ATA interface. It is

intended for use with UL-listed computers or similar products.

Warning. Turn off the computer before you open the case, touch

any internal components or install the drive.

Static discharge. Your drive and computer contain components

that can be damaged by static discharge. Static electricity is

generated when two contributors rub together. The charge is

stored in your body and discharged when you touch another

conductor.Wool,syntheticclothing,carpetsandplastics—includ-

ing most plastic bags—are common static buildup contributors.

Observe the following precautions to avoid damage from static

discharge:

•Ground yourself before handling the drive. Wear a ground

strap that is properly connected to earth ground, or touch the

metal of a power supply that is plugged into a wall outlet.

•Keep the drivein its antistatic bag until youare ready to install

it. Do not attach any cables to the drive while it is in its bag.

•Handle the drive gently and only by its edges or frame. Place

it on an antistatic surface until you are ready to install it.

•Donottouchthedrive’sconnectorpinsorprintedcircuitboard.

Drive handling. The drive is extremely fragile—handle it with

care. Do not remove any labels from the drive.

Inspection. After you are familiar with the handling precautions

listed above, inspect the drive. If it appears to be damaged, call

your distributor or dealer immediately.

Decathlon 850 Installation Guide, July 1995 1

Warranty. See your authorized Seagate distributor or dealer.

Note. Seagate expressly disclaims all warranties, whether oral

or written, express or implied, including without limitation

warranties of merchantablity or fitness for a particular

purpose. In no event will Seagate be liable to you, your

customers or otherusers in any waybasedon loss of data

oruseofthesoftwareorindirect,incidental,consequential,

special,orexemplary damagesarisingoutoforinconnec-

tion with the use or inability to use the software.

Maintenance and repair. Seagate drives donot require mainte-

nance. The head/disc assembly is sealed; a broken seal voids

the warranty. Seagate customer service centers are the only

facilities authorized to repair Seagate drives. Seagate does not

sanction any third-party repair facilities.

Installation and 32-bit disk access software

for Windows are stored on the hard disc at the factory. The

installation software, a version of EZ-Drive for Seagate, provides

asolutionforcomputerswithBIOSsthatlimittheaccessibledrive

Seagate drive’s full capacity.

Before you partitionand format the drive, transfer the software to

a bootable diskette. Seamove, an easy-to-use program on the

2 Decathlon 850 Installation Guide, July 1995

drive, transfers the software to a diskette in Drive A. Instructions

for formatting the diskette and using the transfer program are on

page 17 and in the README.EXE file on the drive.

Quick software transfer for experienced users

1. Install the drive and turn the computer on.

2. EnterSystemSetup(yourcomputermaycallitCMOSorBIOS

setup). Select drive-type 2 for the new Seagate drive.

3. Bootthe computerwith abootable, blank diskette for transfer-

ring the files.

4. Activate the prompt for the new Seagate drive.

5. Type seamove and press ENTER. Seamove transfers the

software to the diskette in Drive A, erases the drive partition

and reboots the computer.

FCC and agency compliance

Your Seagate drive is intended to be contained solely within a

personal computeror similar enclosure (not attached to an exter-

nal device). As such,the drive isconsidered a subassemblyand

no Federal Communications Commissionauthorization, verifica-

tion or certification of the deviceis required.

SeagateTechnology,Inc.hastestedthesedrivesinanenclosure

as describedabove toensure that thetotalassembly(enclosure,

discdrive,motherboard,powersupply,etc.)doescomplywiththe

limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J of

Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation with noncertifiedassemblies

is likely to result in interference to radio andtelevision reception.

Decathlon 850 Installation Guide, July 1995 3

Radio and television interference. This equipment generates

and uses radio frequency energy and, if not installed andused in

strictaccordancewiththemanufacturer’sinstructions,maycause

interference to radio and television reception.

This equipment is designed to provide reasonable protection

against such interference in a residential installation. However,

thereisnoguaranteethatinterferencewillnotoccurinaparticular

installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radioor

television,which canbe determinedby turningthe equipmenton

and off, you are encouraged to try one or more of the following

corrective measures:

•Reorient the receiving antenna.

•Move the device to one side or the other of the radio or TV.

•Move the device farther away from the radio or TV.

•Plug the equipment into a different outlet so that the receiver

and computer are on different branch outlets.

If necessary, you should consult your dealer or an experienced

radio/television technician for additional suggestions. You may

find helpful the following booklet prepared by the Federal Com-

munications Commission:

How to Identify and Resolve Radio-

Television Interference Problems.

This booklet is available from

the Superintendent of Documents, US Government Printing Of-

fice, Washington, DC 20402. Refer to publication number 004-

000-00345-4.

Note. This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits

for radio noiseemissionsfrom computer equipmentas set

out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian

Department of communications.

Drive capacity

The BIOS your computer uses can limit the effective capacity of

your disc drive. (This document assumes you are using a DOS

operating system. If you are using another operating system,

refer to its user’s guide regarding disc drive installation and

parameters.)Itcreatesarepresentationofthedrive’ssurfacethat

allows the computer to store and retrieve data. Recent develop-

ments in disc drive technology have allowed for increased physi-

calcapacity.However,parameterrestrictionsinsomeBIOSslimit

the sizeof the representation to 528 Mbytes. The full 854-Mbyte

capacity of the ST5850A is not accessible when this limit is

imposed. Here are some solutions for surpassing this barrier:

•Upgrade the BIOS to one that uses logical block addressing

(LBA) or a cylinder-head-sector (CHS) addressing scheme

that allows for more than 528 Mbytes.

•Use a host adapter that supports more than 528 Mbytes.

•Install the drive configured for dual-drive emulation. This fea-

ture makes the drivetwo logical drives for the computer. Each

logical drive is assigned a drive type in System Setup and is

partitioned and formatted. A second, physical drive cannot be

used when dual-drive emulation is used.

•Use the free EZ-Drive installation software that is stored on

the drive at the factory or an equivalent. (See page 17 for

instructions on transferring the software to a diskette. See

page 24 for instructions on installing and using EZ-Drive.)

Before you install your drive, evaluate your system to determine

the best installation strategy. This manual discusses standard

setup, dual-drive emulation and EZ-Driveinstallation processes.

Installing the drive

Note. Throughout this manual the Decathlon 850 is referred to

by its model number, ST5850A.

This instruction guides you through the two stages of drive

installation. The first stage involves configuring the drive and

attachingit tothe computer. The second stage involves configur-

ing the computerto recognizethe drive. After you have attached

the drive to the computer, we recommend that you transfer the

free installation and 32-bit disk access driver software to a

diskette. Instructions for transferring the files are on page 17.

Configuring the drive

Theprintedcircuitboardonyour drivemaybeeitheroftwostyles.

This guide differentiates the drives as Type A and Type B. They

can be distinguished by the length of the options jumper block

(J8) connector. Type A drives use a 12-pin connector and are

represented by Figures 1 and 2 on pages 8 and 9. Type B drives

use a 34-pin connector and are represented by Figures 3 and 4

on pages 12 and 13.

The options jumper block (J8) is used to configure the drive for

your computer. You can configure the drive for the following

conditions:

•For one- or two-drive operation

•To be the master or slave drive

•For computers using cable-select

•To use a remote drive-activity LED
