1.1  
ABOUT THE SERIAL ATA INTERFACE  
The Serial ATA interface provides several advantages over the traditional (parallel) ATA interface. The primary advantages  
include:  
Easy installation and configuration with true plug-and-play connectivity. It is not necessary to set any jumpers or other  
configuration options.  
Thinner and more flexible cabling for improved enclosure airflow and ease of installation.  
Scalability to higher performance levels.  
In addition, Serial ATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy software support. Serial ATA was  
designed to allow you to install a Serial ATA host adapter and Serial ATA disk drive in your current system and expect all of  
your existing applications to work as normal.  
The Serial ATA interface connects each disk drive in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host adapter. There is  
no master/slave relationship with Serial ATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. 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. This  
essentially means both drives behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.  
The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two  
devices on separate Serial ATA ports are represented to host software as a Device 0 (master) and  
Device 1 (slave) accessed at the same set of host bus addresses. A host adapter that emulates a  
master/slave environment manages two sets of shadow registers. This is not a typical Serial ATA  
environment.  
NOTE  
The Serial ATA host adapter and drive share the function of emulating parallel ATA device behavior to provide backward  
compatibility with existing host systems and software. The Command and Control Block registers, PIO and DMA data  
transfers, resets, and interrupts are all emulated.  
The Serial ATA host adapter contains a set of registers that shadow the contents of the traditional device registers, referred  
to as the Shadow Register Block. All Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how  
Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA (Revision 2.6). The

SEEK TIME  
Seek measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. All times are measured using drive  
diagnostics. The specifications in the table below are defined as follows:  
Track-to-track seek time is an average of all possible single-track seeks in both directions.  
Average seek time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of seeks between random tracks,  
less overhead.

These drives are designed to consistently meet the seek times represented in this manual. Physical  
seeks, regardless of mode (such as track-to-track and average), are expected to meet the noted  
values. However, due to the manner in which these drives are formatted, benchmark tests that  
include command overhead or measure logical seeks may produce results that vary from these  
specifications.

POWER SPECIFICATIONS  
The drive receives DC power (+5V) through a native SATA power connector (refer to Figure 2).  
2.7.1 Power consumption  
Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table in Table 4. Typical power measurements are based on an average  
of drives tested, under nominal conditions, at 25°C ambient temperature. These power measurements are done with  
Interface Power Management modes like HIPM and DIPM enabled.  
Spinup power  
Spinup power is measured from the time of power-on to the time that the drive spindle reaches operating speed.  
Seek mode  
During seek mode, the read/write actuator arm moves toward a specific position on the disk surface and does not execute  
a read or write operation. Servo electronics are active. Seek mode power is measured based on three random seek  
operations every 100 ms. This mode is not typical.  
Read/write power and current  
Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on three 63 sector read or write operations every 100 ms.  
Idle mode power  
Idle mode power is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo electronics active and with the heads in a random  
track location.  
Standby mode  
During standby mode, the drive accepts commands, but the drive is not spinning, and the servo and read/write electronics  
are in  
power-down mode.

DRIVE SPECIFICATIONS  
2.7.2 Conducted noise  
Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5 volt  
line.  
Using 5-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 100 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise  
at up to 10 MHz.  
Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write current.  
NOTE  
2.7.3 Voltage tolerance  
Voltage tolerance (including noise):  
+5V ± 5%  
2.7.4 Power management modes  
The drive provides programmable power management to provide greater energy efficiency. In most systems, power  
management is controlled through the system setup program. The drive features the following power-management modes:

Active mode  
The drive is in active mode during the read/write and seek operations.  
Idle mode  
The buffer remains enabled, and the drive accepts all commands and returns to active mode any time disk access is  
necessary.  
Standby mode  
The drive enters standby mode when the host sends a standby Immediate command. If the host has set the standby timer,  
the drive can also enter standby mode automatically after the drive has been inactive for a specifiable length of time. The  
standby timer delay is established using a standby or idle command. In standby mode, the drive buffer is enabled, the  
heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive accepts all commands and returns to active mode any time disk  
access is necessary.  
Sleep mode  
The drive enters sleep mode after receiving a sleep command from the host. In sleep mode, the drive buffer is disabled,  
the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive leaves sleep mode after it receives a hard reset or soft reset  
from the host. After receiving a reset, the drive exits sleep mode and enters standby mode with all current translation  
parameters intact.  
Idle and standby timers  
Each time the drive performs an active function (read, write or seek), the standby timer is reinitialized and begins counting  
down from its specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer reaches zero before any drive activity is required, the drive  
makes a transition to standby mode. In both Idle and standby mode, the drive accepts all commands and returns to active  
mode when disk access is necessary.

During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T.  
specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels.  
2.9.1 Test for prominent discrete tones (PDTs)  
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process is the use  
of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses the lower limit for the threshold curve* to discern tone audibility and to  
compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios according to Annex D of the ECMA-74  
standards.  
*Defined as the median curve given by ISO 389-7 (Tf curve) minus 10dB at all frequencies.

DRIVE SPECIFICATIONS  
2.12.3 FCC verification  
These drives are intended to be contained solely within a personal computer or similar enclosure (not attached as an  
external device). As such, each drive is considered to be a subassembly even when it is individually marketed to the  
customer. As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission verification or certification of the device is required.  
Seagate has tested this device in enclosures as described above to ensure that the total assembly (enclosure, disk drive,  
motherboard, power supply, etc.) does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J, Part 15  
of the FCC rules. Operation with noncertified assemblies is likely to result in interference to radio and television reception.  
Radio and television interference This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and  
used in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception.  
This equipment is designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However,  
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to  
radio or television, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, you are encouraged to try one or more of  
the following corrective measures:  
Reorient the receiving antenna.  
Move the device to one side or the other of the radio or TV.  
Move the device farther away from the radio or TV.  
Plug the computer into a different outlet so that the receiver and computer are on different branch outlets.  
If necessary, you should consult your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. You  
may find helpful the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission: How to Identify and Resolve  
Radio-Television Interference Problems. This booklet is available from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government  
Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Refer to publication number 004-000-00345-4.

DRIVE SPECIFICATIONS  
2.13 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION  
Seagate designs its products to meet environmental protection requirements worldwide, including regulations restricting  
certain chemical substances.  
2.13.1 European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive  
The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, restricts the presence of chemical substances,  
including Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, PBB and PBDE, in electronic products, effective July 2006. This  
drive is manufactured with components and materials that comply with the RoHS Directive.  
2.13.2 China Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive  
This product has an Environmental Protection Use Period (EPUP) of 20 years. The following table contains  
information mandated by China's "Marking Requirements for Control of Pollution Caused by Electronic  
Information Products" Standard.  
"O" indicates the hazardous and toxic substance content of the part (at the homogenous material level) is lower than the  
threshold defined by the China RoHS MCV Standard.  
"X" indicates the hazardous and toxic substance content of the part (at the homogenous material level) is over the threshold  
defined by the China RoHS MCV Standard.  
2.14 CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT  
Seagate electronic drive components pass accelerated corrosion testing equivalent to 10 years exposure to light industrial  
environments containing sulfurous gases, chlorine and nitric oxide, classes G and H per ASTM B845. However, this  
accelerated testing cannot duplicate every potential application environment.  
Users should use caution exposing any electronic components to uncontrolled chemical pollutants and corrosive chemicals  
as electronic drive component reliability can be affected by the installation environment. The silver, copper, nickel and gold  
films used in Seagate products are especially sensitive to the presence of sulfide, chloride, and nitrate contaminants. Sulfur  
is found to be the most damaging. In addition, electronic components should never be exposed to condensing water on the  
surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%. Materials  
used in cabinet fabrication, such as vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corrosive compounds should be minimized or  
eliminated. The useful life of any electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free  
alternatives.

3.0 CONFIGURING AND MOUNTING THE DRIVE  
This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.  
3.1  
HANDLING AND STATIC-DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS  
After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD)  
hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions.  
• Keep the drive in the electrostatic discharge (ESD) bag until you are ready for installation to limit the  
drive’s exposure to ESD.  
• Before handling the drive, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground yourself frequently by touching the  
metal chassis of a computer that is plugged into a grounded outlet. Wear a grounded wrist strap  
throughout the entire installation procedure.  
• Handle the drive by its edges or frame only.  
• The drive is extremely fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down on the drive top cover.  
CAUTION  
• Always rest the drive on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount it in the computer.  
• Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board.  
• Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them with additional labels. Removal  
voids the warranty. Some factory-installed labels contain information needed to service the drive. Other  
labels are used to seal out dirt and contamination.  
3.2  
CONFIGURING THE DRIVE  
Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host adapter. There is no  
master/slave relationship because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point relationships. 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.  
3.2.1 Serial ATA Cables and Connectors  
The Serial ATA interface cable consists of four conductors in two differential pairs, plus three ground connections. The cable  
size may be 30 to 26 AWG with a maximum length of one meter (39.37 in). Refer to Table 8 for connector pin definitions.  
Either end of the SATA signal cable can be attached to the drive or host.  
For direct backplane connection, the drive connectors are inserted directly into the host receptacle. The drive and the host  
receptacle incorporate features that enable the direct connection to be hot pluggable and blind mateable. For installations  
which require cables, you can connect the drive as shown in Figure 2.

CONFIGURING AND MOUNTING THE DRIVE  
3.3  
DRIVE MOUNTING  
You can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom-  
mounting holes. Refer to Figure 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when  
mounting the drive:  
Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (0.76 mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.  
Use only M3 x 0.5 mounting screws.  
Do not overtighten the mounting screws. Maximum torque: 4.0 in-lb (0.4519 N-m).  
Four (4) threads (0.080 in, 2.032 mm) minimum screw engagement recommended.  
Avoid excessive drive distortion when mounting. Refer to the following specifications for stiffness/deflection information:  
Top cover stiffness/deflection  
Operating: no performance degradation, emitted noise,  
mechanical damage, or hard errors  
10 mm probe: 1.02kgf or  
5 mm probe: 0.92kgf  
Non-operating: no hard errors  
20 mm probe: 2.0kgf at any point of top cover

ABOUT FIPS  
4.0 ABOUT FIPS  
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2, FIPS PUB 140-2, is a U.S. government computer  
security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. It is titled “Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules”.  
The initial publication was on May 25, 2001 and was last updated December 3, 2002.  
Purpose.  
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) issued the FIPS 140 Publication Series to coordinate the  
requirements and standards for cryptography modules that include both hardware and software components.  
Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 2 Certification requires drives to go through government  
agencies certifications to add requirements for physical tamper-evidence and role-based authentication. For more  
information, refer to 'Security Rules' section in the 'Security Policy' document uploaded on the NIST website. To reference  
the product certification visit:  
http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/1401vend.htm, and search for “Seagate”.  
Security Level 2.  
Security Level 2 enhances the physical security mechanisms of a Security Level 1 cryptographic module by adding the  
requirement for tamper-evidence, which includes the use of tamper-evident coatings or seals on removable covers of the  
module. Tamper-evident coatings or seals are placed on a cryptographic module so that the coating or seal must be broken  
to attain physical access to the critical security parameters (CSP) within the module. Tamper-evident seals (example shown  
in Figure 5, page 19) are placed on covers to protect against unauthorized physical access. In addition Security Level 2  
requires, at a minimum, role-based authentication in which a cryptographic module authenticates the authorization of an  
operator to assume a specific role and perform a corresponding set of services.

5.3.2 Set Features command  
This command controls the implementation of various features that the drive supports. When the drive receives this  
command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in  
the register does not represent a feature that the drive supports, the command is aborted. Power-on default has the read  
look-ahead and write caching features enabled.  
The acceptable values for the Features register are defined as follows:

5.3.3 S.M.A.R.T. commands  
S.M.A.R.T. provides near-term failure prediction for disk drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive monitors  
predetermined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If self-monitoring determines that a failure is  
likely, S.M.A.R.T. makes a status report available to the host. Not all failures are predictable. S.M.A.R.T. predictability is  
limited to the attributes the drive can monitor. For more information on S.M.A.R.T. commands and implementation, see the  
Draft ATA-5 Standard.  
SeaTools diagnostic software activates a built-in drive self-test (DST S.M.A.R.T. command for D4 ) that eliminates  
H
unnecessary drive returns. The diagnostic software ships with all new drives and is also available at:  
http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/.  
This drive is shipped with S.M.A.R.T. features disabled. You must have a recent BIOS or software package that supports  
S.M.A.R.T. to enable this feature. The table below shows the S.M.A.R.T. command codes that the drive uses.
