When referring to drive capacity, one gigabyte, or GB, equals one billion bytes and one terabyte, or TB, equals one trillion bytes. Your computer’s operating system may use a different
standard of measurement and report a lower capacity. In addition, some of the listed capacity is used for formatting and other functions, and thus will not be available for data storage.
Actual quantit ies will vary based on vario us factors, inc luding file siz e, file format, fe atures and application software. Actual data rates may vary depending on operating environment and

1.1About the SATA interface
The Serial ATA (SATA) 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, SATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy software support. SATA was designed to allow
users to install a SATA host adapter and SATA disk drive in the current system and expect all of the existing applications to work as
normal.
The SATA interface connects each disk drive in a point-to-point configuration with the SATA host adapter. There is no master/slave
relationship with SATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. If two drives are attached on one SATA 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 SATA 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.
The SATA host adapter contains a set of registers that shadow the contents of the traditional device registers, referred to as the
Shadow Register Block. All SATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how SATA emulates parallel
ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA Revision 3.2”. The specification can be downloaded from
www.sata-io.or
g.
Note
The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two
devices on separate SATA 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 SATA environment.

Average annualized workload rating: <180 TB/year.
The AFR specification for the product assumes the I/O workload does not exceed
Rated Workload
the average annualized workload rate limit of 180 TB/year. Workloads exceeding
the annualized rate may degrade the product AFR and impact reliability as
experienced by the particular application. The average annualized workload rate
limit is in units of TB per calendar year.

The following table footnotes apply to Table 1 and Table 2:
*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.

When addressing these drives in LBA mode, all blocks (sectors) are consecutively numbered from 0 to n–1, where n is the number of
guaranteed sectors as defined above.
2.4Seek time
Seek measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. All times are measured using drive diagnostics.
The specifications in the table below are defined as follows:
• Track-to-track seek time is an average of all possible single-track seeks in both directions.
• Average seek time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less
overhead.
Typical seek times (ms)Read Write
Track-to-track1.01.2
Average (1TB - 4TB models)<12.0<12.0
Average (6TB and 8TB models)8.59.5
Average latency (1TB - 4TB models)5.1
Average latency (6TB and 8TB models)4.0
These drives are designed to consistently meet the seek times represented in this manual. Physical
Note
seeks, regardless of mode (such as track-to-track and average), are expected to meet the noted values.
However, due to the manner in which these drives are formatted, benchmark tests that include
command overhead or measure logical seeks may produce results that vary from these specifications.
