Quantum Drive Update Read Me
Important Hard Drive Information

The Genesis MP Installer will install an updated Drive Data file
into your hard drive's Hard Disk ToolKit folder. This file is
used by FWB's Hard Disk ToolKit applications to properly configure
your driver software. This new version corrects problems that
have been discovered when the Quantum 1 GB Fireball hard drive
is used internally in any PCI-based Mac OS machine. The typical
problems can include directory corruption and eventual loss of
data.
The Fireball was shipped in some Genesis MP models and it is also
possible that you or your reseller may have added a Fireball to
your Genesis MP. Be sure to read the following instructions to
find out if you have a Quantum Fireball installed and how to properly
update the drive to correct this problem.
How to update your Quantum Fireball hard drive
-
Run the Genesis MP Installer to automatically update your FWB
Drive Data file.
-
Launch FWB's HDT World Controlª application.
-
Check the Model No. column. If a Fireball drive is listed, select
it as shown below.
-
With the Fireball drive selected, click the Control icon in the
upper right hand corner.
-
In the parameter page window that appears, select Optimize.
Note: Once you have optimized the Fireball drives, you should not make
further changes to their parameter pages.
-
Repeat the above procedure for any other internally mounted Fireball
hard drives.
-
Run Disk First Aid (included with the Mac OS), Norton Utilities
or Mac Tools on your Fireball drives to ensure that any existing
directory damage is corrected.
-
If you continue to experience drive or system software problems,
your system software may have been damaged prior to performing
the above fix. In this case, it will be necessary to reinstall
your System Software.
