2.2.1LBA mode
When addressing these d rives in LBA mode, all bl ocks (sectors) are cons ecutively numbered fr om 0 to n–1,
where n is the number of guaranteed sectors as defined above.
See Section 4.1.2, "Id enti fy Devic e co mma nd" (w ords 60 -6 1 a nd 1 00- 10 3) for a ddi tio nal in formation about 48bit addressing support of drives with capacities over 137 Gbytes.
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:
DiamondMax 20 PATA Product Manual, Rev. A13
Page 22
• 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 av erage of at least 5,000 measurements of seeks betwee n
random tracks, less overhead.
*Typical seek times (msec)Read Write
Track-to-track<0.8<1.0
Average<11.0<12.0

*Measured in quiet mode
Note. 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 or exceed 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.

2.8Power specifications
The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a four-pin standard drive power connector.
2.8.1Power consumption
Power requirements for the dr i ves ar e lis ted i n th e table s beg inn in g o n page 15. Typical power meas ur em ents
are based on an av erage of driv es te sted, under nomin al co nditio ns, u sing +5.0V and + 12.0V input voltage a t
25°C ambient temperature.
• 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 disc surface and does
not execute a read or write operatio n. Se rvo electr onics ar e active. S eek mode power repres ents the worstcase power consump tion, using only random se eks with read or write laten cy time. This mod e is not typic al
and is provided for worst-case information.
• Read/write power and current
Read/write power is me asured with the he ads on track, b ased on a 16-sec tor write followed by a 32-msec
delay, then a 16-sector read followed by a 32-msec delay.
• Operating power and current
Operating power is mea sure d using 40 percent random s eek s, 40 p er cent r ead /write mo de ( 1 wri te fo r e ach
10 reads) and 20 percent drive idle mode.
• Idle mode power
Idle mode power is measur ed wi th th e driv e up to s pee d, wi th ser vo ele ctron ics act ive and with the heads in
a random track location.
• Standby mode
During Standby mode, the driv e accepts commands, but the drive is not spinning, and the ser vo and read/
write electronics are in power-down mode.

2.8.2Conducted noise
Input noise ripple is mea su red at the ho st system power supply acr o ss an equ iv al ent 80 -ohm r es isti ve load on
the +12 volt line or an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5 volt line.
• Using 12-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 120 mV peak-to-peak square-wave
injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
• Using 5-volt power, the drive is expect ed to ope rate wi th a max imum of 1 0 0 mV peak -to-peak squa re-wav e
injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
Note. Equival ent resistance is calcul ated by dividing the nomina l voltage by the typical RMS read/write
current.
2.8.3Voltage tolerance
Voltage tolerance (including noise):
5V ± 5%
12V ± 10%
2.8.4Power-management modes
The drive provides programmab le power mana gement to provide grea ter energy efficiency. In most systems,
you can control power management through the system setup program. The drive features the following
power-management modes :
The drive is in Active mode during the read/write and seek operations.
• Idle mode
The buffer remains en abled, and the drive a ccepts a ll comm ands and re turns to Ac tive mode any time disc
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 dri ve can also enter Stand by mode automaticall y after the drive has be en inactive for a
specifiable length of time. The standby timer delay is established using a Standby or Idle command. In Standby
mode, thedrive buffer is enab led, the heads are parked and the spi ndle is at rest. The drive accepts all
commands and returns to Active mode any time disc 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 he ads are p arke d and the spind le is at rest. T he dr ive leav es Slee p mo de after it rece ives 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 perfo rms an Active function (read, wr ite or seek), the standby time r is reinitialized and
begins counting down from its specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer reaches zero before any drive

2.10Acoustics
Drive acoustics a re measured as overall A -weighted acoustic soun d power levels (no pu re tones). All measurements are consistent with ISO document 77 79. Sound power measur ements are taken under essential ly
free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.
Note. For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only. The number of seeks per second is defined
by the following equation:
(Number of seeks per second = 0.4 / (average latency + average access time)

2.14Environmental protection
Seagate designs its prod ucts to meet environ mental protectio n requirem ents worldwide, in cluding regul ations
restricting certain chemical substances.
2.14.1European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive restricts the presence of chemical
substances, including Lead (Pb), in electronic products effective July 2006. Although amendments to the
Euro-pean Union’s Restri ction of Hazardous Substances (Ro HS) Dire cti ve ha ve not bee n finalized, to the best
of our knowledge the disc drives documented in this publication will comply with the final RoHS Directive
require-ments.
A number of parts and materials in Seag ate products are procured from external suppl iers. We rely on the
rep-resentations of our suppliers regarding the presence of RoHS substances in these parts and materials. Our
supplier contracts r equire compliance with our chem ical substance restrictions, a nd our suppliers document
their compliance with our requirements by providing material content declarations for all parts and materials for
the disc drives documented in this publication. Current supplier declarations include disclosure of the inclusion
of any RoHS-regulated substance in such parts or materials.
Seagate also has internal systems in place to ensure ongoing compliance with the RoHS Directive and all laws
and regulations which restrict chemical content in electronic products. These systems include standard
operat-ing procedures that ensure that restricted su bstances are not utiliz ed in our manufacturi ng operations,
labora-tory analyti cal validatio n testing, and an internal auditing pr ocess to ens ure that all standar d operatin g
procedures are complied with.
2.15Corrosive environment
Seagate electronic driv e components pass accelerated corr osion testing equivalent to 10 ye ars exposure to
light industrial envir onments containi ng sulfuro us gases, chlorine an d 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 elec tronic drive componen t reliabi lity ca n be affected by th e installati on environm ent. The s ilver,
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, electr onic components
should never be ex pose d to c ondensin g water on the surfac e of th e pri nted cir cuit bo ard a ssembly (PCBA ) or
exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%. Materials used in cabinet fabrication, such as vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corr osive compoun ds should be m inimized or e liminated. Th e useful life of any
electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free alternatives.

3.3.3Ultra ATA/100 cable
An 80-conductor 40 -pin cable is required to run Ultra DMA mode 3, mode 4, and mode 5. This cable uses
even-numbered conductors connected to the ground pins to improve signal integrity.
Note.
If you are using a 40-pin, 80-conductor
cable, attach the blue connector to the
motherboard, the black connector to the
master drive, and the gray connector
to the slave.

Motherboard
Note.The drive supports both host and drive cable detection. The host detects the 80-conductor cable by
sampling pin 34, CBLID–, on the interface bus . The drive detec ts the 80-conduc tor cable by sensing a capacitor at the host side thr ough the CBLID– signal. The result is repor ted in a Fast Rise
Detected bit (bit 13 of word 93 in the Identify drive parameter block).
3.4Drive mounting
You can mount the driv e in any o rientation u sing four screws in the s ide-mountin g hole s or four screws i n the
bottom-mounting holes. See Figure 6 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when mounting the drive:
• Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 inches (0.76 mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.
• Use only 6-32 UNC mounting screws.
• Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 inch-lb.).
• Do not use a drive interface cable that is more than 18 inches long.
These drives use t he industry-standard ATA task file interface that s upports 16-bit data transfer s. It supports
ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; m ultiwor d DMA m odes 0– 2, and Ul tra DMA mod es 0–5. The
drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.
You can use a daisy-chai n cabl e to co nnect two drive s to a single AT host bus. For detailed i nform ation about
the ATA interfa ce, refer to the draft of AT Attachment with Packet Interface Extensi on (ATA/ATAPI-7), NCITST13 1410D, subsequently referred to as the Draft ATA-7 Standard.
4.1ATA interface signals and connector pins
