Seagate BarraCuda Pro SATA Product Manual, Rev. A 4

1.0 Introduction

This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the following: Seagate® BarraCuda Pro SATA model drives:.

Standard 512E models

ST12000DM0007 ST10000DM0004 ST8000DM0004

These drives provide the following key features:

• 256 MB data buffer.

• 7200 RPM spindle speed.

• Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor intervention.

• High instantaneous (burst) data-transfer rates (up to 600MB per second).

• Native Command Queuing with command ordering to increase performance in demanding applications.

• Perpendicular recording technology provides the drives with increased areal density.

• PowerChoice™ for selectable power savings

• SeaTools™ diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessary drive returns.

• State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms.

• Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting.

• Supports latching SATA cables and connectors.

• Top Cover Attached motor for excellent vibration tolerance

• Worldwide Name (WWN) capability uniquely identifies the drive.

Note

Seagate recommends validating the configuration with the selected HBA/RAID controller manufacturer to ensure use of full capacity is supported.

1.1 About the Serial ATA interface

The Serial ATA interface provides several advantages over the traditional (parallel) ATA interface. The primary advantages include:

• Easy installation and configuration with true plug-and-play connectivity. It is not necessary to set any jumpers or other configuration options.

• Thinner and more flexible cabling for improved enclosure airflow and ease of installation.

• Scalability to higher performance levels.

In addition, Serial ATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy software support. Serial ATA was designed to allow users to install a Serial ATA host adapter and Serial ATA disk drive in the current system and expect all of the existing applications to work as normal.

The Serial ATA interface connects each disk drive in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host adapter. There is no master/slave relationship with Serial ATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. If two drives are attached on one Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they were both “masters” on two separate ports. This essentially means both drives behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.

The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two devices on

Note

The Serial ATA host adapter and drive share the function of emulating parallel ATA device behavior to provide backward compatibility with existing host systems and software. The Command and Control Block registers, PIO and DMA data transfers, resets, and interrupts are all emulated.

separate Serial ATA ports are represented to host software as a Device 0 (master) and Device 1 (slave) accessed at the same set of host bus addresses. A host adapter that emulates a master/slave environment manages two sets of shadow registers. This is not a typical Serial ATA environment.

The Serial ATA host adapter contains a set of registers that shadow the contents of the traditional device registers, referred to as the Shadow Register Block. All Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment” specification. The specification can be downloaded from

* All specifications above are based on native configurations. ** One GB equals one billion bytes and 1TB equals one trillion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity.

Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and formatting.

*** During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T.

specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels.

† Seagate does not recommend operating at sustained case temperatures above 60°C.

Operating at higher temperatures will reduce useful life of the product.

Workloads exceeding the annualized rate may degrade the drive MTBF and impact product reliability. The Annualized Workload Rate is in units of TB per year, or TB per 8760 power on hours. Workload Rate = TB transferred * (8760 / recorded power on hours).
