Assuming this is a clean and blank disk, you'll want to slice it up with 'fx'.
Google for instructions. You'll then want to "mkfs" it, either from a booted
IRIX system or from the installer. Google is once again your friend.
: Do I have to switch the jumper settings to SE from LVD?
It should auto-detect, but the appropriate jumper setting would be SE.
: 2) format XFS on the secondary HD (same drive).
Same procedure.
: I need instructions on how to format properly in either primary HD (boot up
: drive of courese)....and later on secondary drive for 9 GB extra space.
Google is your friend.

Generally you want the system drive to be ID 1, then number up from there.
