Preface
This manual contains information for users of the Seagate®
Barracuda 36 SCSI disc drives. It provides support services, per-
formance specifications, and initial setup information. Additional
information is available in the Barracuda 36 Product Manual
(part number 77767528). Contact your Seagate sales represen-
tative if you need to order this publication.
Electrostatic discharge protection
Caution. Removal of circuit boards by personnel not perform-
ing depot repair will damage components and may
void the warranty.
All drive electronic assemblies are sensitive to static electricity,
due to the electrostatically sensitive devices used within the
drive circuitry. Although some devices such as metal-oxide semi-
conductors are extremely sensitive, all semiconductors, as well
as some resistors and capacitors, may be damaged or degraded
by exposure to static electricity.
Electrostatic damage to electronic devices may be caused by the
direct discharge of a charged conductor or by exposure to the
static fields surrounding charged objects. To avoid damaging
drive electronic assemblies, observe the following precautions
when installing or servicing the drive:
• Ground yourself to the drive whenever the drive electronics
are or will be exposed. Connect yourself to ground with a wrist
strap (Seagate part number 12263496). Connection may be
made to any grounded metal assembly. As a general rule,
remember that you and the drive electronics must all be
grounded to avoid potentially damaging static discharges.

Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
• Turn off the power before removing or installing the DC power
cable.
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive.
• Never use an ohmmeter on any circuit boards.
• When installing the drive on a carrier or tray, discharge the car-
rier or tray prior to inserting it into the system.
Important safety information and precautions
Caution.
Use forced-air ventilation when bench-testing the
drive to ensure proper cooling of drive components.
Use proper safety techniques for safe, reliable operation of this
unit.
The procedures in this manual and labels on the unit contain
warnings and cautions that must be carefully read and followed
to minimize or eliminate the risk of personal injury. The warnings
point out conditions or practices that may endanger you or oth-
ers. The cautions point out conditions or practices that may dam-
age the unit, possibly making it unsafe for use.
Always observe the following warnings and precautions:
• Follow all cautions and warnings in the procedures.
• Use sound safety practices when operating, installing, or
removing the unit.
• Use caution when troubleshooting a unit that has voltages
present. Turn off power to the unit before removing it.
• Ensure that the internal temperature of the rack or cabinet
does not exceed the limits defined for the drive when the drive
is mounted in an equipment rack or cabinet. When units are
stacked vertically, pay special attention to the top where tem-
peratures are usually highest.
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B

• Follow the precautions listed above in “Electrostatic discharge
protection.”
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive. Return the
entire drive for depot repair if any circuit board is defective.
Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing depot
repair will damage components and may void the warranty.
• Do not remove the head and disc assembly (HDA) from the
drive. Return the entire drive for depot repair if the HDA is
defective.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the HDA. It is not field repair-
able. If the sealed HDA is opened by personnel not performing
depot repair, this will damage components and void the
warranty.
As a component, this drive is designed to be installed and oper-
ated in accordance with UL1950, EN60950, CAN/CSA C22.2
950-95, and VDE0805.
Seagate takes all reasonable steps to ensure that its products
are certifiable to currently accepted standards. Typical applica-
tions of these disc drives include customer packaging and sub-
system design. Safety agencies conditionally certify component
assemblies, such as the Barracuda disc drive, based on their
final acceptability in the end-use product. The subsystem
designers are responsible for meeting these conditions of
acceptability in obtaining safety-regulatory agency compliance in
their end-use products and for certifying where required by law.
A necessary part of meeting safety requirements is the provision
for overcurrent protection on drive SELV supply voltages.
This unit is a component part and as such is not meant to com-
ply with FCC or similar national requirements as a stand-alone
unit. Engineering radiated emissions test results are available

den Betrieb in Übereinstimmung mit UL 1950, EN60950, CAN/
CSA C22.2 950-95 und VDE0805 vorgesehen.
Seagate ist ständig bemüht, die Zulassungsfähigkeit von
Seagate-Produkten im Rahmen der gegenwärtig geltenden
Standards zu gewährleisten. Zu den typischen Anwendungen
dieser Festplattenwerke zählen Systemeinbau durch den
Kunden und die Konstruktion von Untersystemen. Sicherheitsbe-
hörden gewähren eine bedingte Zulassung für Komponenten wie
das Barracuda-Festplattenlaufwerk vorbehaltlich der endgültigen
Zulasssung im Endprodukt. Designer von Untersystemen sind
dafür verantwortlich, die Voraussetzungen für die Einhaltung
sicherheits- oder aufsichtsbehördlicher Vorschriften in ihren
Endprodukten und - falls gesetzlich vorgeschrieben - für die
Zulassung zu schaffen. Eine Grundvoraussetzung zur Einhal-
tung der Sicherheitsanforderungen ist die Bereitstellung eines

Regulatory agency compliance
Electromagnetic susceptibility
As a component assembly, the drive is not required to meet any
susceptibility performance requirements. It is the responsibility of
those integrating the drive within their systems to perform those
tests required and design their system to ensure that equipment
operating in the same system as the drive or external to the sys-
tem does not adversely affect the performance of the drive. See
Table 2, DC power requirements.
Electromagnetic compliance
Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance
to the directives/standard(s) for CE Marking and C-Tick Marking.
The drive was tested in a representative system for typical appli-
cations. The selected system represents the most popular char-
acteristics for test platforms. The system configurations include:
• 486, Pentium, and PowerPC microprocessors
• 3.5-inch floppy disc drive
• Keyboard
• Monitor/display
• Printer
• External modem
• Mouse
Although the test system with this Seagate model complies to
the directives/standard(s), we cannot guarantee that all systems
will comply. The computer manufacturer or system integrator
shall confirm EMC compliance and provide CE Marking and
C-Tick Marking for their product.

General description
Barracuda 36 SCSI disc drives are high-speed, random-access
digital-data storage devices.
The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure
designed for the drive. This is often a rack within the system or
an external enclosure designed to house one or more disc drives
or other peripheral units. In either case, the disc drive must
receive adequate cooling (refer to “Providing adequate cooling”)
and it must be sufficiently grounded and shielded from emis-
sions. The Barracuda 36 Product Manual (part number
77767528) contains guidelines for a properly designed
enclosure.

General Notes from Table 2.
1. Minimum current loading for each supply voltage is not less
than 4% of the maximum operating current shown.
2. Use separate ground returns for +5V and +12V supplies.
3. Where power is provided to multiple drives from a common
supply, carefully consider individual drive power require-
ments. Where multiple units are powered on simultaneously,
be sure the peak starting current is available to each device.

Initial setup information
The general information beginning on this page applies to all of
the Barracuda 36 drive models. After reading the general infor-
mation topics, refer to the appropriate drive-specific section
listed below for additional information about configuring and
installing your particular model.

General information
The following general information topics are discussed:
• SCSI ID jumpers
• Drive termination
• Terminator power
• Interface drivers and data path width notes
• Other applicable jumper options
• Providing adequate cooling
• Mounting the drive and connecting cables1
• Formatting the drive
1This mounting procedure does not apply to “LC” model drives.
To mount an “LC” drive, plug the drive into the system’s single
connector attachment (SCA) position on the system’s back
panel.
20
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
SCSI ID jumpers
Each device on the SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID.
The host system’s SCSI controller usually uses the ID that has
the highest priority interrupt in the SCSI I/O system. This is
always ID7. ID0 is lowest priority in an 8-bit I/O system. ID8 is
lowest priority in a 16-bit I/O system. The lower priority SCSI IDs
are normally used for other SCSI devices such as this Barracuda
disc drive.
Note.
Most SCSI controllers (host adapters) allow you to skip a
SCSI ID. For example, you can have ID0, ID1, and ID3
(skipping ID2). Other controllers do not allow this so be
sure to refer to your system or controller user’s manual
for details about its requirements for proper SCSI device
installation.
Note.
This drive is a SCAM (SCSI Configured Auto Magically)
compliant drive. If the system into which you are installing
this drive requires SCAM compliant drives, you do not
need to be concerned about the drive ID jumper settings,
as the system automatically assigns your new drive the
ID it wants it to have. The system may or may not use the
existing drive ID jumper settings. Setting the drive ID
doesn’t hurt anything, but is not necessary in a SCAM
compliant system.
Most Barracuda disc drives are factory set with the SCSI ID set
at 0. To change the SCSI ID, refer to the appropriate drive sec-
tion for your model.
If, after completing the installation process, the drive’s LED does
not show on/off activity when the host is trying to communicate
with the drive, a duplicate SCSI ID may be the problem. If this is
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
21
the case, change the ID so that each device on the SCSI chain
has its own unique ID. Also check your system or controller
user’s manual to ensure that you have not violated its SCSI ID
numbering recommendations.
Drive termination
If you are installing a Barracuda drive in a system that has other
SCSI devices installed, terminate only the end devices on the
SCSI chain. A SCSI “device” is any disc drive, scanner, tape
backup unit, or other piece of hardware connected to your sys-
tem using the SCSI bus.
The top example in Figure 2 shows an internal hard disc at one
end of the SCSI bus with the SCSI controller at the other end
(both are terminated). The bottom example shows two additional
SCSI devices connected externally—this means the SCSI con-
troller is no longer on the end of the SCSI chain and should not
be terminated.
Note.
Some controllers prefer to remain terminated even if they
are in the middle of the chain. Also, some controllers treat
the internal and external chains as separate logical
buses. This means you may need to terminate both the
first and last devices on both logical buses to achieve
proper termination. If necessary, refer to your system or
controller documentation to see how this is handled in
your particular system.
22

You usually will not need to change this option and can normally
leave the drive configured as it was shipped from the factory. For
information about how to change the terminator power option on
your drive, refer to the appropriate drive-specific section.
I/O circuits and data path widths
• “LW” and “LC” models use SCSI multimode I/O circuits. Multi-
mode circuits operate either in single-ended mode or low volt-
age differential mode. No high voltage differential devices
should be connected in the I/O daisy chain with “LW” or “LC”
model drives. The state of the I/O “DIFFSNS” line determines
whether the devices on the SCSI bus operate their I/O circuits
in single-ended or low voltage differential mode. The host
device on the SCSI bus operates the “DIFFSNS” line. How-
ever, the SE jumper on J2 forces “DIFFSNS” to nominal
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
23
ground (see Figure 12). The host device cannot override the
SE jumper. If “DIFFSNS” is at nominal ground (0V to .6V), all
of the bus receivers/drivers operate in single-ended mode. If
“DIFFSNS” is between .7V and 1.9V, all bus receiver/drivers
operate in low voltage differential (LVD) mode.
• “LC” and “LW” models have a “wide” (16-bit) SCSI data bus
rather than the standard (non-wide) 8-bit SCSI data bus; how-
ever, you can use these wide drives on a standard (non-wide)
8-bit data bus. However, the unused lines must be terminated
the same as the used lines.
Figures 3a and 3b show typical drive connections. The following
tables list the maximum cable lengths and number of devices
allowed on a daisy-chain cable for I/O data transfer rates shown.
Note. For LVD operation, twisted pair cables are recom-
mended. For LVD Fast-40 operation, twisted pair cables
are strongly recommended. For Fast-80 operation,
twisted pair cables are required.

Providing adequate cooling
The enclosure design must ensure adequate cooling for the
drive. The maximum ambient air temperature around the drive
should not exceed 50°C. However, to achieve maximum reliabil-
ity, the ambient temperature should be about 15°C below this
value most of the time.
The drive’s product manual (77767528) describes how to evalu-
ate the air-flow design. The evaluation consists of ensuring that
the case temperature of certain critical components remains
within acceptable limits during drive operation.
We recommend orienting the drive or directing the air flow in a
way that creates the least amount of air-flow resistance while
providing air flow above the circuit boards and around the head
and disc assembly (HDA). Also, choose the shortest possible
path between the air inlet and exit. This minimizes the distance
traveled by air that is heated by the drive and by other nearby
heat sources.
Figure 4 shows two design approaches with one or more fans
used to generate air flow. The air-flow patterns can be created
by the fans either pushing or drawing air. The overall flow pattern
can be directed from front to back, back to front, or side to side.

Kühlung des Systems
Die Gehäusekonstruktion muß eine ausreichende Kühlung des
Laufwerkes gewährleisten. Die Umgebungstemperatur darf max-
imal 50°C betragen.
Die Produkthandbuch Barracuda 36 (Dokument 77767528)
enthalten Anweisungen zur Beurteilung der Luftstromkonstruk-
tion. Die Beurteilung muß sicherstellen, daß sich die Gehäuse-
temperatur bestimmter kritischer Komponenten bei
Laufwerkbetrieb innerhalb zugelassener Grenzen hält.
Wir empfehlen, das Laufwerk so zu orientieren oder den Luft-
strom so zu lenken, daß der geringste Luftstromwiderstand
erzeugt wird und gleichzeitig ein Luftstrom über den Platinen
und um die Kopf- und Festplatteneinheit (HDA) gegeben ist.
Wählen Sie einen möglichst kurzen Weg zwischen Lufteinlaß
und -auslaß. Dadurch wird die Strecke, die die vom Laufwerk
und anderen nahegelegenen Hitzequellen aufgewärmte Luft
zurücklegt, auf ein Minimum beschränkt.
Abbildung 4 zeigt zwei Konstruktionsmöglichkeiten, bei denen
ein oder mehrere Lüfter den Luftstrom erzeugen. Der Luftstrom-
verlauf wird durch die Lüfter gesteuert, die entweder Luft einbla-
sen oder abziehen. Generell kann der Luftstrom entweder von
vorne nach hinten oder von hinten nach vorne verlaufen.

Mounting the drive and connecting cables
Do not touch the connector pins or any components on the con-
trol board without observing static-discharge precautions.
Always handle the drive by the frame only.
The drive may be mounted in any orientation (horizontally, verti-
cally, and any combination thereof); however, you must ensure
that the drive receives adequate air flow for cooling.
1. Mount the drive to the host system’s chassis using four 6-32
UNC screws. Two mounting holes are in each side of the
drive and there are four mounting holes in the bottom of the
drive.
The maximum length that the screws should extend into the
chassis mounting holes is 0.15 inch (3.81 mm), measured
from the outer surface of the chassis. Tighten the screws
down evenly. Do not over-tighten or force the screw if it does
not seem to screw in easily, because this means the threads
are not properly aligned. In this case, back the screw out
and try again.
Installation des Laufwerkes
und Anschluß der Kabel
Beachten Sie beim Handhaben und Anfassen der Anschlußstifte
und Komponenten die Vorsichtsmaßnahmen zur Verhinderung
statischer Aufladung. Fassen Sie das Laufwerk nur am Rahmen
an.
Das Laufwerk kann in beliebiger Orientierung (horizontal, ver-
tikal oder schräg) installiert werden; jedoch muß dafür gesorgt
werden, daß ein ausreichender Luftstrom zur Kühlung des Lauf-
werkes vorhanden ist.
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
33
1. Befestigen Sie das Laufwerk mit vier 6-32-UNC-Schrauben
am Gehäuse des Host-Systems. Die beiden Seiten des
Laufwerkes sind mit jeweils zwei Befestigungslöchern
versehen, die Unterseite des Laufwerkes weist vier weitere
Befestigungslöcher auf.
Gemessen von der Außenfläche des Gehäuses dürfen die
Schrauben maximal 3,81 mm in die Befestigungslöcher des
Gehüuses hineinragen. Die Schrauben müssen gleich-
mäßig, jedoch nicht zu fest, angezogen werden. Wenn sich
eine Schraube nicht ohne Widerstand einschrauben läßt,
sind die Gewinde nicht korrekt aneinander ausgerichtet. In
diesem Fall die Schraube nicht in das Gewindeloch
forcieren, sondern die Schraube herausnehmen und erneut
in das Gewindeloch einführen.
2. Verify that all connections between the drive and the host
system are correctly installed.
2. Prüfen Sie, ob alle Verbindungen zwischen dem Laufwerk
und dem Host-System korrekt hergestellt sind.
3. Verify that you have correctly installed jumpers.
3. Stellen Sie sicher, daß die Kennungsbrücken installiert sind.
4. Connect the SCSI cable into the drive’s SCSI connector.
Take care not to stretch or crimp this cable, and do not block
the system’s cooling air flow with the cable.
The drive receives DC power through a 4-pin connector
mounted next to the SCSI connector. The output of a power
supply must meet SELV (safety extra low voltage) as
defined in IEC 950. Figure 5 provides the pin information for
34
Barracuda 36 Installation Guide, Rev. B
the DC power connector. To connect the DC power cable to
the drive, simply insert the cable end into the drive’s DC
power connector.
4. Schließen Sie das SCSI-Kabel an den SCSI-Steckverbinder
des Laufwerkes an. Das Kabel darf nicht gedehnt oder
gedrückt werden und es darf den Luftstrom zur Kühlung des
Systems nicht behindern.
Das Laufwerk wird über einen 4-poligen, neben dem SCSI-
Anschluß befestigten Steckverbinder mit Gleichstrom ver-
sorgt. Der Ausgang eines Netzteils muß SELV (safety extra
low voltage) nach IEC 950 entsprechen. Abbildung 5 zeigt
die Steckerbelegung für den Gleichstromanschluß. Zum
Anschluß des Gleichstromkabels an das Laufwerk das
Kabelende in den Gleichstromanschluß des Laufwerkes
stecken.

Note. Signal ground on the printed circuit board assembly
(PCBA) and the head and disc assembly (HDA) are con-
nected together in this drive and you cannot separate
them. The equipment in which you have mounted the
drive is connected directly to the HDA and PCBA without
electrically isolating shock mounts. Maximizing the con-
ductive contact area between HDA ground and system
ground may reduce radiated emissions.
If you do not want the system chassis to be connected to
the HDA/PCBA ground, you must provide a nonconduc-
tive (electrically isolating) method of mounting the drive in
the host system. This may increase radiated emissions
and is the system designer’s responsibility.
Hinweis:
Die Signalerde auf der bedruckte computerplatine mon-
tage (PCBA) und der Kopf- und Festplatteneinheit (HDA)
sind in diesem Laufwerk miteinander verbunden und kön-
nen nicht getrennt werden. Das Gerät, in das Sie das
Laufwerk eingebaut haben, ist ohne elektrisch isolier-
ende Stoßdämpfer direkt an die HDA und PCBA ange-
schlossen. Die elektromagnetische Strahlung kann
reduziert werden, indem Sie eine möglichst große lei-
tende Kontakfläche zwischen der HDA-Erdung und der
Systemerdung vorsehen.
Wenn Sie das Systemgehäuse nicht an die HDA/PCBA-
Erdung anschließen wollen, müssen Sie das Laufwerk
auf nichtleitende Weise (galvanisch isoliert) im Host-Sys-
tem einbauen. Die daraus u.U. resultierende verstärkte
36

elektromagnetische Strahlung fällt in den Zuständigkeits-
bereich des Systemdesigners.

Formatting the drive
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. Barracuda 36 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.
Quick reference desktop system notes
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. Sys-
tems 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).

Terminating the drive
“LW” model drives do not have internal terminators or any other
way of adding internal termination to the drive. External termina-
tion for these drives must be supplied by the host equipment.

The
and all other devices on the SCSI bus to operate in the single-
SE
jumper, when installed on J2, forces the drive I/O circuits
ended (SE) mode. When the
jumper is not on, the SCSI I/O
can operate in either single-ended or low-voltage differential
(LVD) mode, depending on which mode the host device has
SE
selected using the “DIFFSNS” I/O line. The
jumper should
not be installed unless the system documentation specifically
states that it should be installed. The I/O bus can transfer data at
a much higher data rate in the LVD mode, but the system must
be designed to accommodate a higher data rate.
