Getting Started

1. Set the hard disk you are installing in the Kazan as master drive according to the

manufacturer's instructions. New hard disks are typically already configured as
master drives.

2. Lava recommends installing an already-formatted hard drive into the Kazan Drive

Enclosure. New drives may already be formatted by the manufacturer. FAT or FAT32
formatted drives are the easiest to troubleshoot. Some NTFS-partitioned drives
occasionally may not work.

To externally format a hard drive in Windows, attach the drive to a motherboard
connector and partition it with FDISK.EXE before installing it into the external drive
enclosure. Format the drive with FORMAT.EXE.

If it is not possible to format the hard drive before installing it into the drive
enclosure (in the case of notebook computers, for instance), it is possible to format
the hard drive inside the enclosure when using Windows 2000 or XP.

3. The Kazan ships with a small plastic bag containing the ribbon cable connector

and screws used for assembly.

See

Before Proceeding:

To prevent damage to the Kazan's electronics,

touch a bare metal portion of your computer's case or a similar
grounded metal surface with your finger to discharge any static
electricity your body may have.
