1.1 About the Serial ATA interface

The Serial ATA interface provides several advantages over the traditional (parallel) ATA interface. The primary advantages include:
• Easy installation and configuration with true plug-and-play connectivity. It is not necessary to set any jump­ers or other configuration options.
• Thinner and more flexible cabling for improved enclosure airflow and ease of installation.
• Scalability to higher performance levels.
In addition, Serial ATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy sof twar e suppo rt. S erial ATA was designed to allow you to install a Serial ATA host adapter and Serial ATA disc drive in your current system and expect all of your existing applications to work as normal.
The Serial ATA interface connects each disc drive in a point-to-point configuration with the S erial ATA host adapter. There is no master/slave relationship with Serial ATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. If two drives are attached on one Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they were both “masters” on two separate ports. This essentially means both drives behave as if they ar e Device 0 (master) devices.
Note. The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two
devices on separate Serial ATA ports are represented to host software as a Device 0 (master) and Device 1 (slave) accessed at the same set of host bus addresses. A host adapter that emulates a master/slave environment manages two sets of shadow registers. This is not a typical Serial ATA environment.
The Serial ATA host adapter and drive share the function of emulating parallel ATA device behavior to provide backward compatibility with existing host systems and software. The Command and Control Block registers, PIO and DMA data transfers, resets, and interrupts are all emulated.
The Serial ATA host adapter cont ains a set of regi ste rs that sha dow the conte nt s of the trad i tional devi ce r egis­ters, referred to as the Shadow Register Block. All Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For addi­tional information about how Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment” specification. The specification can be downloaded from http://www.serialata.org.

• 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 average of at least 5,000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.

seeks, regardless of mode (such as track-to-track and average), are expected to meet 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.

2.9 Power specifications

The drive receives DC power (+5V) through a native SATA power connector.

2.9.1 Power consumption

Power requiremen ts for the dr iv es are listed i n the ta ble on p age 7. Typical power measurements are ba sed on an average of drives tested, under nominal conditions, at 25°C ambient temperature, after 25 minutes of oper­ation.
• Spinup power
Spinup power is measured from the time of power-on to the time that the drive spindle re aches operating speed.
• Seek mode
During seek mod e, the read /write actuator arm move s toward a spe cific positi on on the d isc surface and does not execute a read or write operati on. Servo ele ctronics ar e acti ve. Seek mode power is mea sure d based on three random seek operations every 100 msecs. This mode is not typical.
Read/write power and current Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on three 63 sector read or write operations
every 100 msecs.
• Idle mode power
Idle mode power is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo electronics active and with the heads in a random track location.
• Standby mode
During Standby mode, the drive accepts commands, but the drive is not spinning, and the servo and read/ write electronics are in power-down model
Power di s s ipation +5V input average (25° C)
Spinup 1.0 A Seek 2.0 watts Read 1.9 watts Write 1.8 watts Idle, performance mode* 1.4 watts Idle, active* 0.75 watts Idle, low power mode* 0.6 watts Standby 0.2 watts Sleep 0.2 watts
*During periods of drive i dle, some offl ine activity may occur acc ording to the S. M.A.R.T. speci fica tion, which may i ncrease acoust ic and
power to operational levels.
