DISCLAIMER
Failure of the MAN series intelligent disk drive is defined as a failure requiring adjustments, repairs, or replacement. Fujitsu is not responsible for drive failures caused by misuse by the user, poor environmental conditions, power trouble, host problems, cable failures, or any failure not caused by the drive itself.
The suffix of the model name of the disk drive varies depending on the electrical requirements, capacity, and data format at factory shipment of the SCSI, i.e., the interface for connecting the three device types or host system and the disk drives (Note 1). However, in this manual, the typical model names (Note 2) are used unless otherwise noted. These disk drives may be called intelligent disk drives (IDD), drives, or devices in this manual.

Mounting Installation
Data loss
For MAN series, Reed Solomon codes are applied for their ECC.
The sector-data is divided into 6 interleaving sectors, and ECC is performed in each sector where the maximum number of errors (up to 5 byte) can be corrected. [Total maximum byte: 5 byte interleave) = 30 byte]
If the error of read sector keeps allowable error byte number, correction is performed.
However, if error byte exceeds its allowable number, correction may not be performed properly.
Hot temperature
To prevent injury, do not handle the drive until after the device has cooled sufficiently after turning off the power. The DE and LSI become hot during operation and remain hot immediately after turning off the power.
Data loss
1. The user must not change the setting of terminals not described in this section. Do not change setting status set at factory shipment.
2. Do not change the setting of terminals except following setting pins during the power is turned on.
• Write protect: CN2 9-10 (MP model only)
3. To short the setting terminal, use the short plug attached when the device is shipped from the factory.

Damage
1. Make sure that system power is off before connecting or disconnecting cables.
2. Do not connect or disconnect cables when power is on.(except MC model)
Damage
1. Be careful of the insertion orientation of the SCSI connectors. With the system in which terminating resistor power is supplied via the SCSI cable, if the power is turned on, the overcurrent

Task Alert message Page
Mounting Installation
protection fuse of the terminating resistor power supplier may be blown or the cable may be burnt if overcurrent protection is not provided.
When the recommended parts listed in Table 4.2 are used, inserting the cables in the wrong direction can be prevented.
2. To connect SCSI devices, be careful of the connection position of the cable. Check that the SCSI device with the terminating resistor is the last device connected to the cable.
Data loss
When the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command terminates with the CHECK CONDITION status, the INIT must collect the error information using the REQUEST SENSE command. The RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command cannot read out the error information detected in the self-diagnostics.
Caution
1. To avoid shocks, turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting a cable, connector, or plug.
2. To avoid injury, do not touch the mechanical assembly during disk drive operation.
3. Do not use solvents to clean the disk drive.
6-4
6-5
Caution
1. Always ground yourself with a wrist strap connected to ground before handling. ESD (Electrostatics Discharge) may cause the damage to the device.
2. To prevent electrical damage to the disk drive, turn the power off before connecting or disconnecting a cable, connector, or plug.
3. Do not remove a PCA. This operation is required to prevent unexpected or unpredictable operation.
4. Do not use a conductive cleaner to clean a disk drive assembly.
5. Ribbon cables are marked with a colored line. Connect the ribbon cable to a cable connector with the colored wire connected to pin 1.
Damage Do not open the DE in the field because it is a completely sealed room.
Data loss Save data stored on the disk drive before requesting repair. Fujitsu does not assume responsibility if data is destroyed during servicing or repair.
Caution Never open the disk enclosure in the field. Opening the disk enclosure in the field may cause an irreparable fault.

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1 Standard Features
1.2 Hardware Structure
1.3 System Configuration
This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the intelligent disk drives (IDD).
IDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5 type fixed disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller.
The interface between the IDD and host system is based on SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) standard [ANSI X3.131 - 1986: Small Computer System Interface (SCSI), ANSI X3.131-1994: Small Computer System Interface - 2 (SCSI-2)].
The flexibility and expandability of the SCSI, as well as the powerful command set of the IDD, allow the user to construct a high-performance reliable disk subsystem with large storage capacity. Refer to SCSI Logical Interface Specifications for details.
C141-E128-01EN 1 - 1
1.1 Standard Features
(1) Compactness
Since the SCSI controller circuit is embedded in the standard 3.5 type fixed disk drive form factor, the IDD is extremely compact. The IDD can be connected directly to the SCSI bus of the host system.
(2) SCSI/CCS standard
The IDD provides not only SCSI basic functions but also the following features:
• Arbitration
• Disconnection/Reconnection
• Data bus parity
• Command set which meets the logical specification of the SCSI CCS (Common Command
Set for Direct Access Device) requirements (Rev. 4.B)
The SCSI commands can manipulate data through logical block addressing regardless of the physical characteristics of the disk drive. This allows software to accommodate future expansion of system functions.
(3) 8-bit SCSI/16-bit SCSI
The IDD has 16-bit data bus width (16-bit SCSI), which have the wide transfer function suitable for SCSI-2. This is also available as 8-bit data bus only MP model.
For the ultra SCSI model, number of connectable SCSI devices on the same SCSI bus is varied as follows.
• 8-bit SCSI: 8 drives max.
• 16-bit SCSI: 16 drives max.
(4) High speed data transfer
Such a high data transfer rate on the SCSI bus can be useful with the large capacity buffer in the IDD.
• 8-bit SCSI: The data transfer rate on the SCSI bus is 40 MB/s maximum in synchronous mode.
• 16-bit SCSI: The data transfer rate on the SCSI bus is 160 MB/s maximum in synchronous mode.
C141-E128-01EN1 - 2
Note:
The maximum data transfer rate in asynchronous mode may be limited by the response time of initiator and the length of SCSI bus length. The maximum data transfer rate in synchronous mode may be limited by the cable length, transmission characteristics of the SCSI bus and the connected SCSI device number.
(5) Continuous block processing
The addressing method of data blocks is logical block address. The initiator can access data by specifying block number in a logically continuous data space without concerning the physical structure of the track or cylinder boundaries.
The continuous processing up to [64K-1] blocks in a command can be achieved, and IDD can perform continuous read/write operation when processing data blocks on several tracks or cylinder.
(6) Programmable multi-segment data buffer
The data buffer is 8M bytes. Data is transferred between SCSI bus and disk media through this data buffer. This feature provides the suitable usage environment for users.
Since the initiator can control the disconnect/reconnect timing on the SCSI bus by specifying the condition of stored data to the data buffer or empty condition of the data buffer, the initiator can perform the effective input/output operations with utilizing high data transfer capability of the SCSI bus regardless of actual data transfer rate of the disk drive.
(7) Read-ahead cache feature
After executing the READ command, the IDD reads automatically and stores (prefetches) the subsequent data blocks into the data buffer (Read-ahead caching).
The high speed sequential data access can be achieved by transferring the data from the data buffer without reaccessing the disk in case the subsequent command requests the prefetched data blocks.
(8) Command queuing feature
The IDD can queue maximum 128 commands, and optimizes the issuing order of queued commands by the reordering function. This feature realizes the high speed processing.
(9) Reserve and release functions
The IDD can be accessed exclusively in the multi-host or multi-initiator environment by using the reserve and release functions.
C141-E128-01EN 1 - 3
(10) Error recovery
The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus or the disk drive using its powerful retry processing. If a recoverable data check occurs, error-free data can be transferred to the initiator after being corrected in the data buffer. The initiator software is released from the complicated error recover processing by these error recovery functions of the IDD.
(11) Automatic alternate block reassignment
If a defective data block is detected during read or write the IDD can automatically reassign its alternate data block.
(12) Programmable data block length
Data can be accessed in fixed-block length units. The data block length is programmable, and can be specified at initializing with a multiple of four within the range of 512 to 528 bytes.
(13) Defective block slipping
A logical data block can be reallocated in a physical sequence by slipping the defective data block at formatting. This results in high speed contiguous data block processing without a revolution delay due to defective data block.
(14) High speed positioning
A rotary voice coil motor achieves fast positioning.
(15) Large capacity
A large capacity can be obtained from 3.5 type disk drives by dividing all cylinders into several partitions and changing the recording density on each partition (constant density recording). The disk subsystem with large capacity can be constructed in the good space efficiency.
(16) Start/Stop of spindle motor
Using the SCSI command, the host system can start and stop the spindle motor.
(17) Diagnosis
The IDD has a diagnostic capability which checks internal controller functions and drive operations to facilitate testing and repair.
C141-E128-01EN1 - 4
(18) Low power consumption
By using highly integrated LSI components, the power consumption of the IDD is very low, and this enables the unit to be used in wide range of environmental conditions.
(19) Low noise and low vibration
The noise level is low; approx. 3.9/3.6 bels for MAN series. This makes it ideal for office use.
(20) Microcode downloading
The IDD implements the microcode download feature. This feature achieves easy maintainability of the IDD and function enhancing.
1.2 Hardware Structure
An outer view of the IDD is given in Figures 1.1 to 1.2. The IDD is composed of the disk, head, spindle motor, mounted disk enclosure (DE) with actuator and air circulation filter, as well as read/write pre-amp with the print card unit (PCA) of the controller.

(1) Disks
The disks have an outer diameter of 84 mm (3.3 inch) outer diameter and 25 mm (0.98 inch) inner diameter for MAN series. The disks are good for at least 20,000 contact starts and stops. Each model contains following number of disks.

(2) Heads
The MR (Magnet - Resistive) of the CSS (contact start/stop) type heads are in contact with the disks when the disks are not rotating, and automatically float when the rotation is started. Figure
1.3 shows the configuration of disks and heads
(3) Spindle motor
The disks are rotated by a direct-drive hall-less DC motor. The motor speed is controlled by a feedback circuit using the counter electromotive current to precisely maintain the speed at ±0.2% of the specified speed.

(4) Actuator
The actuator, which uses a rotary voice coil motor (VCM), consumes little power and generates little heat. The head assembly at the end of the actuator arm is controlled and positioned via feedback of servo information in the data.
Heads are positioned on the CCS zone over the disk when the power is off or the spindle motor is stopped.
(5) Air circulation (recirculation filter, breather filter)
The disk enclosure (DE) configures a sealed room to keep out dust and other pollutants. The DE has a closed-loop air recirculation system. Using the movement of the rotating disks, air is continuously cycled through a filter. This filter will trap any dust generated inside the enclosure and keep the air inside the DE contaminant free. To prevent negative pressure in the vicinity of the spindle when the disks begin rotating, a breather filter is attached. The breather filter also equalizes the internal air pressure with the atmospheric pressure due to surrounding temperature changes.

(6) Read/write circuit
The read/write circuit utilizes a read channel mounted with a head IC that supports high-speed transmission and an MEEPR4ML (Modified Enhanced Extended Partial Response Class 4 Maximum Likelihood) modulation/demodulation circuit in order to prevent errors being triggered by external noise and to improve data reliability.
(7) Controller circuit
The controller circuit uses LSIs to increase the reliability and uses a high speed microprocessing unit (MPU) to increase the performance of the SCSI controller.
1.3 System Configuration
Figure 1.4 shows the system configuration. The IDDs are connected to the SCSI bus of host systems and are always operated as target. The IDDs perform input/output operation as specified by SCSI devices which operate as initiator.

C141-E128-01EN1 - 8
(1) SCSI bus configuration
Up to eight SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 8-bit SCSI and up to 16 SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 16-bit SCSI in any combination.
For example, the system can be configured as multi-host system on which multiple host computers that operate as initiator or connected through the SCSI bus.
Using disconnect/reconnect function, concurrent input/output processing is possible on multi­SCSI devices.
(2) Addressing of peripheral device
Each SCSI device on the bus has its own unique address (SCSI ID:#n in Figure 1.4). For input/output operation, a peripheral device attached to the SCSI bus that operates as target is addressed in unit called as logical unit. A unique address (LUN: logical unit number) is assigned for each logical unit.
The initiator selects one SCSI device by specifying that SCSI ID, then specifies the LUN to select the peripheral device for input/output operation.
The IDD is constructed so that the whole volume of disk drive is a single logical unit, the selectable number of SCSI ID and LUN are as follows:
• SCSI ID: 8-bit SCSI:Selectable from 0 to 7 (switch selectable)
16-bit SCSI:Selectable from 0 to 15 (switch selectable)
• LUN: 0 (fixed)
