Introduction
This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the ST328040A, ST327240A, ST320430A, ST313620A,
ST310220A, and the ST36810A. These drives provide the following key
features:
Low power consumption
•
Quiet operation
•
High instantaneous (burst) data-transfer rates (up to 66.6 Mbytes per
•
second) using Ultra DMA mode 4
7,200-RPM and 512-Kbyte buffer combine for superior desktop per-
•
formance
300 Gs nonoperating shock
•
GMR recording heads and EPRML technology, which provide the
•
drives with increased areal density
State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms
•
Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor
•
intervention
Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting
•
Support for Read Multiple and Write Multiple commands
•
Support for autodetection of master/slave drives that use cable select
•
(CSEL)
