Introduction
This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the Medalistâ Pro 2160N and Medalist Pro 2160WC SCSI hard disc drives. The Medalist Pro 2160N is referred to in this manual by its model number ST52160N. This drive comes with the standard 50-pin interface connector. The Medalist Pro 2160WC is referred to in this manual by its model number ST52160WC. This drive comes with the 80-pin blindmate single-connector attachment (SCA-2).
Seagate desktop products take a step into the future with the ST52160N and ST52160WC. These drives feature MR heads and PRML recording technology.
The Medalist Pro drives uses an UltraSCSI interface. The ST52160N supports a synchronous external transfer rate of up to 20 Mbytes per second. The ST52160WC supports a synchronous external transfer rate of up to 40 Mbytes per second.
These drives have other features that ensure fast data throughput. The ST52160N uses a 128-Kbyte buffer. The ST52160WC uses a 256-Kbyte buffer. The adaptable cache aids the flow of read and write data. Embedded servo technology allows the drives to position the heads for data retrieval efficiently and accurately while eliminating the periodic thermal recalibration that can interrupt during data transfers. These drives also use a 16-bit microprocessor and an intelligent controller that provides data streaming: direct data transfers between the drive and the host without microprocessor intervention. This feature allows for a sustained data rate that facilitates video playback and other multimedia operations.
The drives conform to the standard 3.5-inch footprint but have a 0.75-inch (19 mm) height profile and a 5.380-inch depth profile. The lower height and shorter depth gives the designer or integrator more room for air circulation, other peripherals or a smaller drive bay.
The SCSI commands the drives support are listed in Section 3.3. on page 36.

1.5Seek time
All seek time measurements are taken under nominal conditions of temperature and voltage with the drive mounted horizontally. In the following table:
∙Track-to-track seek time is the average of all possible single-track seeks in both directions.
∙Average/typical seek time is a true statistical random average of at least 5,000 measurements of seeks in both directions between random cylinders, less overhead.
∙Full-stroke seek time is one-half the time needed to seek from logical block address zero (LBA 0) to the maximum LBA and back to LBA 0.

1.6Read look-ahead and caching
The drives use algorithims that improve seek performance by storing data in a buffer and processing it at a more convenient time. Three methods are used: read look-ahead, read caching and write caching. These are described in Appendix C.6 on page 108.
1.7Start/stop command
If the motor-start option is disabled, the drive is ready within 20 seconds after power is applied. If the motor-start option is enabled, the drive is ready within 20 seconds after it receives the Motor Start command. If the drive receives a command to spin down or power is removed, the drive stops within 15 seconds.

1.7.1Power-up sequence
The following typical power-up sequence is provided to assist you in evaluating drive performance. This information does not constitute a specification or a performance guarantee.
1.Power is applied to the disc drive.
2.Depending on whether there is a jumper installed on pins 9 and 10 of the options jumper block (J5) shown in Figure 3 on page 19, either of the following sequences occurs:
∙If a jumper is not installed, the remote start option is not enabled, and the drive begins to spin up as soon as power is applied.
∙If a jumper is installed, the remote start option is enabled, and the drive begins to spin up when the host sends a command for the motor to start.
8 |
Medalist Pro 2160N/ 2160WC Product Manual, Rev. A |
3.Within 250 msec after power is applied, the drive responds to the Test Unit Ready, Request Sense, Mode Sense and Inquiry commands.
4.The drive begins to lock in speed-control circuits.
6.The actuator lock releases the actuator.
7.The spindle motor reaches operating speed in about 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, there are no speed variations.
8.The drive performs velocity-adjustment seeks.
9.The drive seeks track 0 and is then ready.
1.7.2Power-down sequence
Caution. Do not move the drive until the motor has come to a complete stop.
1.The power is turned off.
2.Within 15 seconds, the drive spindle stops rotating.
3.The read/write heads automatically move to the landing zone, which is inside the maximum data cylinder.
4.The magnetic acuator lock mechanism locks the arm. This completes the power-down sequence.
1.7.3Auto-park
During power-down, the read/write heads automatically move to the landing zone. The heads park inside the maximum data cylinder and the magnetic actuator lock engages. When power is applied, the heads recalibrate to track 0.
1.8Power management
The drive supports power-management modes that reduce its overall power consumption. They automatically change from one mode to another in response to interface activity. You do not need to change any parameters or send any special commands to make the drive change modes. The power-management modes are described as follows:
∙Spinup. Spinup is defined as the period during which the spindle is coming up to operating speed. The power consumed in this mode is equivalent to the average power during the first 10 seconds after the drive begins to spin up.
Medalist Pro 2160N/ 2160WC Product Manual, Rev. A |
9 |
|
|
|
|
∙Seek. The servo electronics are active, and the heads are moving to a specific location on the disc. The read/write electronics are powereddown. The power consumed in this mode is equivalent to the average power measured while executing random seeks with a 2-revolution (26.6 msec) dwell between seeks. The drive enters this mode from the Idle mode.
∙Read/Write. The drive is reading or writing. All electronics are active and the heads are on track.
∙Idle. The motor is up to speed and the drive is in track-follow mode.
1.8.1Power consumption
Values in the table below were measured at the drive power connector with an RMS DC ammeter. The terminating resistors are disabled, and terminator power is supplied through the SCSI connector. All values are measured 10 minutes after the drive spins up except as noted.

2.0 Hardware and interface
The Medalist Pro drives use an UltraSCSI interface. The ST52160N consists of an 8-bit bidirectional data bus. The ST52160WC consists of a 16-bit bidirectional data bus. The interface supports multiple initiators, disconnect and reconnect, self-configuring host software and logical block addressing.
The UltraSCSI interface uses a singled-ended driver/receiver configuration that uses asynchronous or synchronous communication protocols. The ST52160N supports asynchronous transfer rates up to 10 Mbytes per second and synchronous transfer rates up to 20.0 Mbytes per second. The ST52160WC supports asynchronous transfer rates up to 20 Mbytes per second and synchronous transfer rates up to 40 Mbytes per second.
2.1SCSI-3 compatibility
The drive interface is described in the Seagate SCSI-2 /SCSI-3 Interface Manual, publication number 77738479. The drives comply with the mandatory subset of the ANSI SCSI-2 Interface. The Fast SCSI-3 interface is based on the ANSI Small Computer System Interface-2 (SCSI-2), document number ANSI X3.131-1994.
2.2Handling and static-discharge precautions
The drive has static-sensitive devices. Avoid damaging the drive and these devices by observing the following standard handling and staticdischarge precautions:
∙Keep the drive in its static-shielded bag until you are ready to complete the installation. Do not attach any cables to the drive while it is in its static-shielded bag.
∙Before handling the drive, 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.
Wool and synthetic clothes, carpets, plastics and Styrofoam contributes to electrostatic buildup. Static discharge may damage sensitive components in your drive and computer.
∙Handle the drive by its edges or frame only.
∙The drive is extremely fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down on the drive’s top cover.
18 |
Medalist Pro 2160N/2160WC Product Manual, Rev. A |
∙Always rest the drive on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount it in the host system.
∙Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board.
∙Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them with additional labels. If you do, you void the warranty. Some factoryinstalled labels contain information needed to service the drive. Others are used to seal out dirt and contamination.
2.3Electrical interface
The drives are designed to use single-ended interface signals. They use single-ended drivers and receivers and active terminator circuitry. Figure 2 shows a single-ended transmitter and receiver without the active terminator circuitry.
∙Transmitter characteristics. The drives use an ANSI SCSI-compat- ible, open-collector, single-ended driver. This driver is capable of sinking a current of 48 mA with a low-level output voltage of 0.4 volts.
∙Receiver characteristics. The drives use an ANSI SCSI singleended receiver with hysteresis gate or equivalent as a line receiver.
The loss in the cable is defined as the difference between the voltages of the input and output signals, as shown below:
