22 Barracuda 7200.11 Serial ATA Product Manual, Rev. E
3.2 Configuring the drive
Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects point-to-point with the Serial ATA host adapter. There is no
master/slave relationship because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point relationship. If two
drives are attached on one Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they
were both “masters” on two separate ports. Both drives behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.
Serial ATA drives are designed for easy installation. It is usually not necessary to set any jumpers on the drive
for proper operation; however, if you connect the drive and receive a “drive not detected” error, your SATA-
equipped motherboard or host adapter may use a chipset that does not support SATA speed autonegotiation.
The following option is only available on ST3320613AS, ST3320813AS and ST3160813AS models.
If you have a motherboard or host adapter that does not support autonegotiation:
Install a jumper as shown in Figure 1 below to limit the data transfer rate to 1.5 Gbits per second (and leave
the drive connected to the SATA-equipped motherboard or host adapter that doesn’t support autonegotiation)
or
Install a SATA host adapter that supports autonegotiation, leave the drive jumper block set to “Normal
operation” (see Figure
1 below), and connect the drive to that adapter. This option has the benefit of not limiting
the drive to a 1.5 Gbits/sec transfer rate.

Note. 1.5Gbits jumper block only applies to ST3320613AS, ST3320813AS and ST3160813AS models.
