4. Format the drive The drive has been low level formatted at the factory. You do not need to perform another low level format on this drive unless you decide to perform certain diagnostics through the host adapter. If you do decide to perform a low level format,  do not abort the format as this is likely to make the drive inoperable. A low level format,  with verify turned on,  will typically take one hour. Protect against power failure or other power interruptions during the format. Boot the system from a system floppy,  CD,  or from a previously installed hard disc drive if there is one. 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. Seagate® is not responsible for lost user data. Cheetah® 15K. 3 disc drives are designed to operate with a variety of operating systems. Please refer to your system or Fibre Channel host adapter (controller) manual for information about formatting and setting up the drive for use with your particular operating system.
