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:
• 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
Average latency:4.164.16
*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 fo r the driv es are li sted in the table on page 13. Typical power measurem ents are ba sed
on an average of drives tested, under nominal conditions, using +5.0V and +12.0V input voltage at 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. Serv o 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 mode is not typic al
and is provided for worst-case information.
• Read/write power and current
Read/write power is mea sured with the he ads on track, base d on a 16-secto r 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 mod e ( 1 wri te fo r e ach
10 reads) and 20 percent drive idle mode.

2.8.4Power-management modes
The drive provides program mable power management to provide greater energ y 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 driv e accepts a ll comm ands and r eturns to A ctive mode any t ime 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 b een 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 enabled , the heads are parked and the spindl e 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
activity is required, the driv e makes a transi tion to Standb y mode. In both Idle and Standby mode, the d rive
accepts all commands and returns to Active mode when disc access is necessary.

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) Direc ti 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.

4.0ATA interface
.
These drives use t he industry-standard ATA task file interface that suppor ts 16-bit data transfers. It supports
ATA programmed input/output (PIO) mode s 0– 4; multiw ord DMA m odes 0– 2, and Ul tra DMA modes 0–5. The
drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.
You can us e a dai sy-ch ain cabl e to co nnect two d rives to a singl e AT host bus. For detailed info rmation about
the ATA interface, refer to the draft of AT At tachment with Packet Interface Exten sion (ATA/ATAPI-7), NCITST13 1410D, subsequently referred to as the Draft ATA-7 Standard.
4.1ATA interface signals and connector pins
Figure 7 on page 29 summarizes the signal s on the ATA interface connect or that the drive supports. F or a
detailed description of these signals, refer to the Draft ATA-7 Standard.
