2.7 Power specifications

The drive receives DC power (+3.3V) through the ZIF connector (CE-ATA interface).

2.7.1 Power consumption

Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 8. Typical power measurements are based on
an average of drives tested, under nominal conditions, using +3.3V input voltage at 25°C ambient temperature.

• Startup mode

Startup 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 operation. Servo electronics are active. Seek power is measured based on three
random seek operations every 100 msecs.

• Read/write mode

Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, while the head is reading/writing from/to disc. It is
performed with 100 percent duty cycle of read/write operation.

• Performance Idle mode

During Performance Idle mode, the heads are on track but no reading or writing is done. The spindle motor is
spinning at full speed.

• Low power idle mode

During Low power Idle mode, the heads are unloaded but the spindle motor is spinning at full speed. Servo
and read/write electronics are in powered down mode.

• Standby / Sleep mode

During Standby/Sleep mode, the spindle motor is not spinning, and the servo and read/write electronics are
in powered down mode.

2.7.2 Conducted noise

Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on
the +3.3 volt line.

Using 3.3-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 70 mV

peak-to-peak square-wave

injected noise at up to 20 MHz.

Note. Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write

current.

2.7.4 Power-management modes

The drive provides programmable power management to provide greater energy efficiency. The drive features
the following power-management modes:

Table 3: Power-management modes

Power modes Heads Spindle Buffer

Active (read/write/seek) Tracking Rotating Enabled

Idle, performance Tracking Rotating Enabled

Idle, low power Parked Rotating Disabled

Standby/Sleep Parked Stopped Disabled

• Active mode

The drive is in Active mode during the read/write and seek operations.

• Performance idle mode

The drive enters this mode once the read/write/seek activity is completed. The buffer remains enabled, and
the drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time disc access is necessary.

• Low power idle mode

Drive enters Low Power Idle mode from Performance Idle mode when the Advanced Power Management
Level is set between 80h and FDh, and the Idle timer reaches 2 seconds (default setting). Disc is spinning
and heads are parked and drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time disc access is
necessary.

• Standby/Sleep mode

The drive enters Standby mode when the host sends a Standby Immediate command. When the Advanced
Power Management Level is set lower than 80h (default setting), the drive enters the Standby state after 2
seconds of interface inactivity. If the host has set the standby timer, the drive may also enter the Standby
mode after the expiry of the standby timer. The standby timer can be set using the Standby or Idle command.
In Standby mode, the drive buffer is disabled, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive accepts
all commands and returns to Active mode any time disc access is necessary.

2.8.7 Corrosive environment

Seagate electronic drive components pass accelerated corrosion testing equivalent to ten years of exposure to
light industrial environments containing sulfurous gases, chlorine and 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 electronic drive component reliability can be affected by the installation environment. The sil­ver, 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, electronic components
should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or
exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95 percent. Materials used in cabinet fabrication, such as
vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corrosive compounds should be minimized or eliminated. The useful life of
any electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free alternatives.

2.9 Acoustics

Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). Discrete
tone penalties are added to the A-weighted sound power (LW) with the following formula only when determin­ing compliance:

LWt(spec) == LW + 0.1Pt + 0.3 < 4.0 (Bels)

where

LW = A-weighted sound power level

pt == Value of discrete tone penalty [==dLt-6.0 (dBA)]

dLt = Tone-to-noise ratio taken in accordance with ISO 7779 at each octave band.

All measurements are consistent with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under
essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing
upward.

3.0 Configuring and mounting the drive

This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.

3.1 Handling and static discharge precautions

After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic
discharge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions:

Caution:

• Do not cover or seal the breather hole! Covering or sealing the breather hole may result in loss of data.

Figure 5. Lyrion Series breather hole location

• Keep the drive in the electrostatic discharge (ESD) bag until you are ready for installation to limit the drive’s
exposure to ESD.

• Before handling the drives, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground yourself frequently by touching the metal
chassis of a computer that is plugged into a grounded outlet. Wear a grounded wrist strap throughout the entire
installation procedure.

• Handle the drive only by its edges or frame.

Figure 6. Lyrion Series proper handling example

• The drive is fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down on the drive top cover or attempt to use a pen to
write on the drive’s label.

• Do not apply more than 6.8N of force to the top cover.

• Always rest the drives on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount it in the system.

Lyrion CE-ATA Product Manual, Rev. A 21

• Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them with additional labels. Removal voids
the warranty. Some factory-installed labels contain information needed to service the drive. Other labels are
used to seal out dirt and contamination.

• If provided, store drive in the protective casing when not in use.

• Turn the power off before installing or removing the drive.

• Do not apply any force to the drive during handling or installation.

• Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board.

• Do not drop the drive.

• Do not expose the drive to wet conditions.

• Do not place the drive near a strong magnetic field.

• Do not expose the drive to extreme temperatures.

• The drive may become hot during operation. Be careful when removing the drive from the host device
immediately after operation.

22 Lyrion CE-ATA Product Manual, Rev. A

3.2 Drive installation

See Figure 7 for drive mechanical dimensions.

Follow these installation precautions when inserting the drive:

• Follow instructions for the installation of data storage devices, provided with your device’s user manual.

• Do not obstruct the breather hole on the drive (see Figure 5).

• Handle the drive only by its edges or frame or designated finger grip region during mounting (see Figure 6).

Figure 7. Lyrion Series mechanical dimensions—top, side and end view

Lyrion CE-ATA Product Manual, Rev. A 23

Figure 8. Lyrion Series FPC dimensions

3.3 Mounting considerations

• Use an elastic mounting material to protect drives so as to ensure that more shock can be absorbed.

• There are guides along the side for mounting. Refer to figure on areas (refer to Figure 9, shaded area)

where the mounting material can rest for mounting.

• As the drive is a sensitive device, it is not recommended to have any mounting force on the top and bottom

surface of the drive other than the recommended mounting surfaces. Mounting force on non recommended
surfaces shall not exceed 6.8N.”

• The drive can be operated in any orientation but horizontal or vertical orientation is preferred.

• Allow a minimum clearance of 0.012 inches (0.30 mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling,

with the exception of the mounting edges for better airflow.

• In case the system design warrants bending of the FPC to the hard disc drive, care should be taken to

maximize the radius.

• Mounting materials are available from many third-party vendors.

• The 18-way connector is design to meet minimum 6N Horizontal FPC retention after mating.

• The connector has a specification of 20 insertion cycles.
