3.0 Fixed-disk subsystem description
3.1 Control electronics
The drive is electronically controlled by a microprocessor, several logic modules, digital/analog modules, and various drivers and receivers. The control electronics performs the following major functions:
• Controls and interprets all interface signals between the host controller and the drive.
• Controls read write accessing of the disk media, including defect management and error
recovery.
• Controls starting, stopping, and monitoring of the spindle.
• Conducts a power-up sequence and calibrates the servo.
• Analyzes servo signals to provide closed loop control. These include position error signal and
estimated velocity.
• Monitors the actuator position and determines the target track for a seek operation.
• Controls the voice coil motor driver to align the actuator in a desired position.
• Constantly monitors error conditions of the servo and takes corresponding action if an error
occurs.
• Monitors various timers such as head settle and servo failure.
• Performs self-checkout (diagnostics).
3.2 Head disk assembly
The head disk assembly (HDA) is assembled in a clean room environment and contains the disks and actuator
assembly. Air is constantly circulated and filtered when the drive is operational. Venting of the HDA is accomplished via a breather filter.
The spindle is driven directly by an in-hub, brushless, sensorless DC drive motor. Dynamic braking is used to
quickly stop the spindle.
3.3 Actuator
The read/write heads are mounted in the actuator. The actuator is a swing-arm assembly driven by a voice coil
motor . A closed-loop position ing servo controls the movement of the actuator. An embedded servo pattern supplies
feedback to the positioning servo to keep the read/write heads centered over the desired track.
The actuator assembly is balanced to allow vertical or horizontal mounting without adjustment.
When the drive is powered off, the actuator automatically moves the head to the actuator ramp outside of the disk
where it parks.

Logical layout: Logical layout is an imaginary drive parameter (that is, the number of heads) which is used to
access the drive from the system interface. The logical layout to Physical layout (that is, the actual Head and Sectors ) translation is done automatically in the drive. The default setting can be obtained by issuing an IDENTIFY
DEVICE command.

Physical cylinder is calculated from the starting data track of 0. It is not relevant to logical CHS. Depending on the
capacity some of the inner zone cylinders are not allocated.
Data cylinder
This cylinder contains the user data which can be sent and retrieved via read/write commands and a spare area for
reassigned data.
Spare cylinder
The spare cylinder is used by Hitachi Global Storage Technologies manufacturing and includes data sent from a
defect location.

4.5 Performance characteristics
Drive performance is characterized by the following parameters:
• Command overhead
• Mechanical head positioning
- Seek time
- Latency
• Data transfer speed
• Buffering operation (Look ahead/Write cache)
All the above parameters contribute to drive performance. There are other parameters that contribute to the performance of the actual system. This specification tries to define the bare drive characteristics, not system throughput,
which depends on the system and the application.
4.5.1 Command overhead
Command overhead is defined as the time required from the time the command is written into the command register by a host to the assertion of DRQ for the first data byte of a READ command when the requested data is not in
the buffer excluding Physical seek time and Latency.
The table below gives average command overhead.

The terms “Typical” and “Max” are used throughout this document and are defined as follows:
Typical The average of the drive population tested at nominal environmental and voltage conditions.
Max Maximum value measured on any one drive over the full range of the environmental and voltage
conditions. The seek time is measured from the start of the actuator’s motion to the start of a reliable read or write operation. A reliable read or write implies that error correction or recovery is not
used to correct arrival problems. The average seek time is measured as the weighted average of all
possible seek combinations.
max
Σ (m10 n)(Tnin + Tnout)
n=1
Weighted Average = ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
(max + 1)(max)
where
max = Maximum seek length
n= Seek length (1 to max)
Tnin = Inward measured seek time for an n track seek
Tnout = Outward measured seek time for an n track seek
4.5.2.2 Full stroke seek time (without command overhead, including settling)
Table 7: Full stroke seek time
Function Ty pical (ms) Max (ms)
Read 40-80GB 15.1 18.1
Write 40-80GB 16.1 19.1
Read (Quiet Seek mode) 32.5 35.5
Write (Quiet Seek mode) 33.5 36.5
Full stroke seek is measured as the average of 1,000 full stroke seeks with a random head switch from both directions (inward and outward).
4.5.2.3 Head switch time (head skew)
Table 8: Head switch time
Head switch time-typical (ms)
90 kTPI 1.4
Head switch time is defined as the amount of time required by the fixed disk to complete a seek of the next sequential track after reading the last sector in the current track
The measuring method is given in 4.5.5, “Throughput” on page 28.

Cylinder switch time is defined as the amount of time required by the fixed disk to access the next sequential block
after reading the last sector in the current cylinder.
The measuring method is given in Section 4.5.5, “Throughput” on page 28.
4.5.2.5 Single track seek time (without command overhead, including settling)

Single track seek is measured as the average of one (1) single track seek from every track in both directions
(inward and outward).
