10. If you installed a SCSI hard-disk drive, partition and format the drive. Then install the operating system.
For instructions, see the next subsection, " Partitioning and Formatting SCSI Hard-Disk Drives ", and your operating system
documentation.
11. Test the SCSI devices.
Test a SCSI hard-disk drive by running the SCSI diagnostics. See your Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Guide for
information on running the Dell Diagnostics and troubleshooting any problems that may occur.
To test a SCSI tape drive, refer to the documentation for the tape drive software to perform a tape drive backup and
verification test.
Partitioning and Formatting SCSI Hard-Disk Drives
You may need to use different programs than those provided with the operating system to partition and format SCSI hard-
disk drives. Refer to the documentation that came with your SCSI software drivers for information on installing the
appropriate drivers and preparing your SCSI hard-disk drive for use.
NOTE: When using the Windows NT operating system with the FAT 16 file system, the primary partition for each
hard-disk drive can be no larger than 2 GB. Extended partitions can be larger than 2 GB, but each logical drive
within an extended partition must be no larger than 2 GB.
