1.3 SATA

The ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) interface which was developed based on the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) has been around from 1980’s. As the PC processor speed has improved, so have the data rates of the HDD. The parallel ATA is reaching its limit of 133 MB/s data transfer rate. Serial implementation of ATA (SATA) will allow the data rate to run even faster so the processor will be utilized more efficiently. Serial ATA has been developed to provide the next generation storage interface.

SATA interface replaces 2 inch wide, 40 pin parallel interface connector with 0.25 inch wide 7 pin serial interface connector. The maximum length of the SATA interface cable can be extended to 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) compared to 18 inch of parallel ATA. SATA also allows a data transfer speed of 150 MB/s, 300 MB/s, and 600 MB/s. Even though SATA will not directly interface with Parallel or traditional ATA (PATA) hardware, it is compliant with ATA protocol and therefore software compatible. The cable geometry with smaller footprint connector reduces board space requirements and impro

ves air flow and heat exchange inside computer systems.

SATA uses point to point connection topology and each channel works independently. There is no

sharing of interface, master/slave drive configuration, and no master/slave jumper settings. This is different from Parallel ATA (PATA) architecture where 2 drives per port are supported by a shared bus and drives are designated as master or slave drive based on jumper pin or cable selection. Unlike parallel ATA, SATA drives are hot-plug and hot-swappab

le.

DESCRIPTION

CHAPTER 2 DESCRIPTION

This chapter summarizes general functions and key features of the Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive, as well as the standards and regulations they meet.

2.1 Introduction

The Samsung Spinpoint M8 2.5 inch hard disk drive is high capacity, high performance random access storage device, which uses non-removable 2.5-inch disks as storage media. Each disk incorporates thin film metallic media technology for enhanced performance and reliability. And for each disk surface there is a corresponding movable head actuator assembly to ran do m ly access the data tracks and write or read the user data.

The Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive includes the AT controller embedded in the disk drive PCB electronics. The drive's electrical interface is compatible with all mandatory, optional and vendor-specific commands within the ATA specification.

Drive size conforms to the industry standard 2.5-inch form factor with a SATA 15-pin DC power connector, and the standard SATA 7-pin Interface connector.

The Spinpoint M8 h ard dis k drive incor porates TuMR head and Noise Predictive PRML (Partial Response Maximum Likelihood) signal processing technologies. These advanced technologies allow for areal density of about 677 Gigabits per square inch an d storage cap acity of over 500.0 Gigabytes per disk .

The heads, disk(s), and actuator housing are environmentally sealed within an aluminum-alloy base and cover. As the disks spin, air circulates within this base and cover, commonly referred to as the head and disk assembly (HDA), through a non-replaceable absolute filter ensuring a contamination free environment for the heads and disks throughout the life of the drive.

3.8 Annualized Failure Rate (AF R)

The product will achieve an Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) of 0.55% when operated in an environment of ambient air temperatures of 25°C. Operation at temperatures outside the specifications in Section 3.6, Environmental Specifications may increase the produc t A FR.

AFR is a population statistics that is not relevant to individual units.

AFR specifications are based on the following assumptions for consumer electronics environments:

• 8760 power-on-hours per year

• 10,0 00 aver ag e motor start/stop cycles per year

• Operati o ns a t n ominal v oltag es

• Temperature s outside the specific at i o ns in Secti on 3.6, Environmental Specifications may reduce the product

reliability.

• Norm al I/O duty cycle for consumer e lectro nics environments. Operation at excessive I /O duty cycle may degrade

product reliability.

The consumer electronics environment of power-on-hours, temperature, and I/O duty cycle affect the product AFR. The AFR will be degraded if used in an enterpri se applicat ion.

CHAPTER 4 INSTALLATION

This chapter describes how to unpack, mount, configure and connect a Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive. It also describes how to install the drive in systems.

4.1 Space Requirements

Figure 4-1 shows the external dimensions of the drive.

Figure 4-1: Mechanical Dimension

Spinpoint M8-DVR Dis ti Product Manual REV 2.0

INSTALLATION

4.2 Unpacking Instructions

(1) Open the shipping container of the Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive.

(2) Lift the packing assembly that contains the drive out of the shipping container.

(3) Remove the drive from the packing assembly. When you are ready to install the drive, remove it from the

ESD (Electro Static Discharge) protection bag. Take precautions to protect the drive from ESD damage

after removing it from the bag.

CAUTION: During shipment and handling , the ant i -static ESD pro tection bag

prevents electronic component damage due to electrosta tic discharge. To avoid accidental damage to the drive, do not use a sharp instrument to open the ESD protection bag.

(4) Save the packing material for possible future use.

4.3 Mounting

Refer to your system manual for complete mounting details. (1) Be sure that the system power is off.

(2) For mounting, use four M3 screws.

CAUTION: Torque applied to the screws is recommended to

be 3.5 [kg* cm]

± 0.5 (

3.0 [inch *pounds] ± 0.5)

4.3.1 Orientation

Figure 4-2 shows the physical dimensions and mounting holes located on each side of the drive. The

mounting holes on Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive allow the drive to be mounted in any direction.

INSTALLATION

4.3.2 Ventilation

The Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive is designed to operate without the need of a cooling fan provided the ambient air temperature does not exceed 60ºC. Any user-designed cabinet must provide adequate air circulation to prevent exceeding the maximum temperature.

4.4 Cable Connectors

The Interface/Power connector consists of two cables; a SATA 15-pin DC power connector, and the standard SATA 7-pin Interface connector.

4.4.1 SATA Connectivity

The SATA interface is connected within a point to point configuration with the SATA host port. There is no master or slave relationship within the devices. Thus SATA does not require master/slave jumper. The drive interface section of the host adapter employs a new design which processed data into a serial data-control system.

Figure 4.4 illustrates the connection for the SATA. There are two cables for SATA drives. One is for data transmission. The other is for power. Figure 4-4 illustrates (a) device signal plug connector, (b) device power plug connector mating with (a), and (d) power cable receptacle connector to be mated with (b). For more information, please refer to SATA Specifications cited in the reference.

SATA Device Connector Definition

Please note that all pins are in a single row, with a 1.27 mm (50 mil) pitch diameter. There are three power pins for each voltage source. One pin from each voltage is utilized for pre-charge when installed in a blindmate backplane configuration.

The notes on the mating sequence apply to the case of backplane blind mate connector.

When the drive is inserted, the ground pins and the pre-charge pins are in contact first followed by the remaining pins.

Table 4-1 lists the signals connection on the SATA interface and power connector. It is based on SATA 1.0a Specifications. Note that pin numbers is designated from the pin farthest from power segment.

SATA-Bus Interface Connector

The SATA-Bus interface connector on the drive connects the drive to an SATA host bus adapter or an on- board SATA adapter in the computer. Figure 4.6 illustrates the power, SATA, and factory use only jumper. Figure 4.7 shows pin locations on the SATA drive.
