4.4 Performance characteristics
Drive performance is characterized by the following parameters:
Ÿ Command Overhead
Ÿ Mechanical Positioning
w Seek Time
w Latency
Ÿ Data Transfer Speed
Ÿ Buffering Operation (Look ahead/Write Cache)
Note: All the above parameters contribute to drive performance. There are other parameters which
contribute to the performance of the actual system. This specification defines the essential characteristics
of the drive. This specification does not include the system throughput as this is dependent upon the
system and the application.
The following table gives a typical value for each parameter.

The seek time is measured from the start of motion of the actuator to the start of a reliable read or write
operation. A reliable read or write operation implies that error correction/recovery is not employed to
correct arrival problems. The Average Seek Time is measured as the weighted average of all possible
seek combinations.

The device is capable of responding immediately to media access requests. Some
circuitry—including servo system and R/W electronics—is in power saving mode.
The head is parked near the mid-diameter the disk without servoing.
A device in Active idle mode may take longer to complete the execution of a
command because it must activate that circuitry.
The head is unloaded onto the ramp position. The spindle motor is rotating at full
speed.
The device interface is capable of accepting commands. The spindle motor is
stopped. All circuitry but the host interface is in power saving mode.
The execution of commands is delayed until the spindle becomes ready.
The device requires a soft reset or a hard reset to be activated. All electronics,
including spindle motor and host interface, are shut off.

5 Data integrity
5.1 Data loss on power off
Ÿ Data loss will not be caused by a power off during any operation except the write operation.
Ÿ A power off during a write operation causes the loss of any received or resident data that has not
been written onto the disk media.
Ÿ A power off during a write operation might make a maximum of one sector of data unreadable. This
state can be recovered by a rewrite operation.
5.2 Write Cache
When the write cache is enabled, the write command may complete before the actual disk write operation
finishes. This means that a power off, even after the write command completion, could cause the loss of
data that the drive has received but not yet written onto the disk.
In order to prevent this data loss, confirm the completion of the actual write operation prior to the power
off by issuing a
Ÿ Soft reset
Ÿ Hard reset
Ÿ Flush Cache command
Ÿ Standby command
Ÿ Standby Immediate command
Ÿ Sleep command
Confirm the command’s completion.
5.3 Equipment status
The equipment status is available to the host system any time the drive is not ready to read, write, or seek.
This status normally exists at the power-on time and will be maintained until the following conditions are
satisfied:
Ÿ The access recalibration/tuning is complete.
Ÿ The spindle speed meets the requirements for reliable operation.
Ÿ The self-check of the drive is complete.
The appropriate error status is made available to the host system if any of the following conditions occur
after the drive has become ready:
Ÿ The spindle speed lies outside the requirements for reliable operation.
Ÿ The occurrence of a Write Fault condition .
5.4 WRITE safety
The drive ensures that the data is written into the disk media properly. The following conditions are
monitored during a write operation. When one of these conditions exceeds the criteria, the write operation
is terminated and the automatic retry sequence is invoked.
Ÿ Head off track
Ÿ External shock
Ÿ Low supply voltage
Ÿ Spindle speed out of tolerance
Ÿ Head open/short
22
5K320 SATA OEM Specification
5.5 Data buffer test
The data buffer is tested at power on reset and when a drive self -test is requested by the host. The test
consists of a write/read '00'x and 'ff'x pattern on all buffers.
5.6 Error recovery
Errors occurring on the drive are handled by the error recovery procedure.
Errors that are uncorrectable after application of the error recovery procedure are reported to the host
system as nonrecoverable errors.
5.7 Automatic reallocation
The sectors that show some errors may be reallocated automatically when specific conditions are met.
The drive does not report any auto reallocation to the host system. The conditions for auto reallocation
are described below.
5.7.1 Nonrecovered write errors
When a write operation cannot be completed after the Error Recovery Procedure (ERP) is fully carried out,
the sectors are reallocated to the spare location. An error is reported to the host system only when the
write cache is disabled and the auto reallocation has failed.
5.7.2 Nonrecoverable read error
When a read operation fails after ERP is fully carried out, a hard error is reported to the host system. This
location is registered internally as a candidate for the reallocation. When a registered location is specified
as a target of a write operation, a sequence of media verification is performed automatically. When the
result of this verification meets the required criteria, this sector is reallocated.
5.7.3 Recovered read errors
When a read operation for a sector fails and is recovered at the specific ERP step, the sector is
reallocated automatically. A media verification sequence may be run prior to the reallocation according to
the predefined conditions.

5K320 SATA OEM Specification
5.8 ECC
The 10 bit symbol non interleaved ECC processor provides user data verification and correction
capability. The first 6 symbol of ECC are 4 check symbols for user data and the 2 symbol system ECC.
The other 34 symbols are Read Solomon ECC. Hardware logic corrects up to 16 symbols(20 bytes)
errors on-the-fly.
2 symbol System ECC is generated when HDC receives user data from HOST, and can correct up to 1
symbol(10bit) errors on-the-fly when one transfers to HOST.

6.3.2 Failure prediction (S.M.A.R.T.)
The drive supports Self -monitoring, analysis and reporting technology (S.M.A.R.T.) function. The details
are described in section 11.8, " S.M.A.R.T. Function" and in Section 13.32, "S.M.A.R.T. Function Set
(B0h)"
6.3.3 Cable noise interference
To avoid any degradation of performance throughput or error when the interface cable is routed on top or
comes in contact with the HDA assembly, the drive must be grounded electrically to the system frame by
four screws. The common mode noise or voltage level difference between the system frame and power
cable ground or AT interface cable ground should be in the allowable level specified in the power
requirement section.
6.3.4 Service life and usage condition
The drive is designed to be used under the following conditions:
Ÿ The drive should be operated within specifications of shock, vibration, temperature, humidity, altitude,
and magnetic field.
Ÿ The drive should be protected from ESD.
Ÿ The breathing hole in the top cover of the drive should not be covered.
Ÿ Force should not be applied to the cover of the drive.
Ÿ The specified power requirements of the drive should be satisfied.
Ÿ The drive frame should be grounded electrically to the system through four screws.
Ÿ The drive should be mounted with the recommended screw depth and torque.
Ÿ The interface physical and electrical requirements of the drive should satisfy Serial ATA Revision 2.6.
Ÿ The power-off sequence of the drive should comply with the 6.3 .6.2,"Required power-off
sequence.”
Service life of the drive is approximately 5 years or 20,000 power on hours, whichever comes first, under
the following assumptions:
Ÿ Less than 333 power on hours per month.
Ÿ Seeking/Writing/Reading operation is less than 20% of power on hours.
This does not represent any warranty or warranty period. Applicable warranty and warranty period are
covered by the purchase agreement.
29
5K320 SATA OEM Specification
6.3.5 Preventive maintenance
None.
6.3.6 Load/unload
The product supports a minimum of 600,000 normal load/unloads.
Load/unload is a functional mechanism of the hard disk drive. It is controlled by the drive micro code.
Specifically, unloading of the heads is invoked by the following commands:
Ÿ Standby
Ÿ Standby immediate
Ÿ Sleep
Load/unload is also invoked as one of the idle modes of the drive.
The specified start/stop life of the product assumes that load/unload is operated normally, not in
emergency mode.
6.3.6.1 Emergency unload
When hard disk drive power is interrupted while the heads are still loaded the micro code cannot operate
and the normal 5 -volt power is unavailable to unload the heads. In this case, normal unload is not
possible. The heads are unloaded by routing the back EMF of the spinning motor to the voice coil. The
actuator vel ocity is greater than the normal case and the unload process is inherently less controllable
without a normal seek current profile.
Emergency unload is intended to be invoked in rare situations. Because this operation is inherently
uncontrolled, it is more mechanically stressful than a normal unload.
The drive supports a minimum of 20,000 emergency unloads.
6.3.6.2 Required Power-Off Sequence
The required host system sequence for removing power from the drive is as follows:
Ÿ Step 1: Issue one of the following commands.
Ÿ Standby
Ÿ Standby immediate
Ÿ Sleep
Note: Do not use the Flush Cache command for the power off sequence because this command
does not invoke Unload.
Ÿ Step 2: Wait until the Command Complete status is returned.
In a typical case 500 ms are required for the command to finish completion; however, the host system
time out value needs to be 30 seconds considering error recovery time.
Ÿ Step 3: Terminate power to HDD.
This power-down sequence should be followed for entry into any system power-down state, system
suspend state, or system hibernation state. In a robustly designed system, emergency unload is limited
to rare scenarios, such as battery removal during operation.
6.3.6.3 Power switch design considerations
In systems that use the Travelstar 5K320 consideration should be given to the design of the system
power switch.
Hitachi recommends that the switch operate under control of the host system, as opposed to being
hardwired. The same recommendation is made for cover-close switches. When a hardwired switch is
