[Critical Instructions: (to be followed carefully)
1. Connect the drive as "master" by it self, on the secondary IDE controller
with no other device on the same IDE cable, making note to set the jumper
on the back of the drive to the "master" position.
2. Download the file GCC-H21N_103(EW).ZIP to a folder of your choice.
This download includes this "Read me(ew)" text file, as well as the GCCH21N_103.EXE program,
which will auto-update your drive's firmware.
3. Close all other programs including: screen saver, antivirus and/or power-down programs.
(If these programs are not closed, they will try to engage the PC, during the update process,
thus interrupting the update and damaging the drive).
4. Check the drive to ensure that there is no disk in the tray
before you start the update procedure.
5. Go into the folder with the update file and double click the GCCH21N_103.EXE program
and click the "Upgrade" button so you'll see "NOTE" and then click "OK".
Firmware upgrade will be automatically started.
6. When the UPGRADE is complete the screen should indicate
"Firmware Update Successfully Completed" and advise you to reboot the system.
The update will be complete, after you reboot your system.
WARNING:
Do not open any programs or start any system functions during the update,
as they will interfere with data transfer and damage the drive.
Do not cancel the operation once it has been started or the drive will
become permanently damaged, as a result.
