Introduction
This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the ST340824A, ST330620A, ST320414A, ST315310A and
the ST310215A. These drives provide the following key features:
Low power consumption
•
Quiet operation
•
High instantaneous ( burst) data-tr ansfer rate s (up to 100 Mbyte s per
•
second) using Ultra DMA mode 5
7,200-RPM spindle spe ed and 2-Mbyte buffer combine for superi or
•
desktop performance
350 Gs nonoperating shock
•
Giant magnetoresistive (GMR) recording heads and EPRML technol-
•
ogy, 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)
The innovative, shock-absorbing SeaShield
•
Cover protects the drive against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and
•
other handling damage . It also includes installati on instructions and
jumper settings.
SeaTools diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates
•
unnessary drive returns.
The 3D Defense System™, which includes Drive Defense, Data De-
•
fense and Diagnostic Defense, offers the industry’s most comprehensive protection for disc drives.
