I received mine today. It does have a software CD with the drive. It also
has a nice instruction book (you know RTFM) on how to do exactly what you
have been asking about. Were you physically looking at it or just
online? If
physically looking at it, did you open the box yet?
Online. I thought I would find out if it would do what I want before I
bought one.
Is this what you meant?
How to use DiscWizard Starter Edition
1. Download the latest version of DiscWizard Starter Edition
<http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/drivers/discwiz.html>.
2. Boot to the DiscWizard Starter Edition floppy diskettes or CD.
3. From the DWSE main menu, select the "setup your hard disc" option.
4. Select the hard disc you want to install then click next.
5. When prompted, select the operating system you plan to use or
install.
6. At the option menu, select "Easy Installation" and follow the
system prompts. Easy installation makes configuration selections
for you and will automatically install the default partition for
that particular operating system. After a few "final warnings",
the drive will be partitioned and formatted, and become accessible
as a logical drive letter after rebooting. Press ENTER to continue.
7. If you require custom settings, select "Advanced Options". For
"advanced options" You will also be prompted to choose what type
of partition you want depending on what the operating system
supports. After a few "final warnings", the drive will be
partitioned and formatted, and become accessible as a logical
drive letter after rebooting. Press ENTER to continue.
8. If a Dynamic Drive Overlay (DDO) is required, DiscWizard Starter
Edition will give very important instructions for booting to the
computer. You will be given an option and instructions for
creating a Boot Diskette (requires a floppy with the OS on it).
You will then be prompted to remove the diskette from Drive A: and
press RESET or CTRL-ALT-DEL to reboot.
9. After re-booting, place the Windows Startup diskette or Windows
operating system in the computer when prompted and start the
install process.
