1.0 Introduction

This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifica­tions for ST3120023AS, ST 380023AS, and ST360015AS ser ial ATA inter­face drives.

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-pl ay 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, ser ial ATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by provid­ing legacy software support. Serial A TA was designed to allow you to install a serial ATA host adap ter and s erial ATA disc drive in your current system an d expect all of your existing applications to work as normal.
The serial ATA interface connects each disc drive in a point-to-poin t 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.
Note. The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environ-
ment to host software where two devices on separate serial ATA ports ar e represented to host so ftware as a Device 0 (master) and Device 1 (slave) accessed at the sa me set of host bus ad dres ses. A host adapter that emulates a master/slave environment manages two sets of shadow registers. This is not a ty pi ca l s erial ATA environ­ment.
The serial A TA 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 serial ATA host adapt er contains a set of registe rs that sh adow the con­tents of the traditiona l device registers, referred to as the Shadow Regist er Block. All serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional

information about how ser ial ATA emulates p arallel ATA, refer to the “Ser ial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment” specification. The specification can be downloaded from http://www.serialata.com.

1.2 Key features

These drives provide the following key features:
• 7,200 RPM spindle speed and 8 M byte buffer combine for superior d esk­top performance.
• High instantaneous (burst) data-transfer rates ( up to 150 M bytes per sec­ond).
• Giant magnetoresis tive ( GMR) recording heads and EPRML tec hnology, which provide the drives with increased areal density.
• State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms.
• Full-track multiple-sector tran sfer capability with out local processor inter­vention.
• Quiet operation.
• 350 Gs nonoperating shock.
• The innovative, shock-absorbing SeaShield
®
cover protects the drive
against electrosta tic discharge (ESD ) and other handlin g damage. It also includes installation instructions and jumper settings.
• SeaTools diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessar y drive returns.
• The 3D Defense System™, which includes Drive Defense, Data Defense and Diagnostic Defense, offers the industr y’s most comprehensi ve protec­tion for disc drives.
• Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting.
• Support for Read Multiple and Write Multiple commands.

2.7 Seek time

Seek measurements ar e taken w ith nom inal power at 25°C a mbient temper ­ature. All times are mea sured using drive diagnos tics. The specifications i n 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 rand om averag e of at least 5,000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.

Note. These dri ves are designed to c onsistently meet the seek times repre-
sented in this manual. Physical seeks, regardless of mode (such as track­to-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.

2.8 Start/stop times

Power-on to Ready (sec) 10 (max) Standby to Ready (sec) 10 (max) Ready to spindle stop (sec) 10 (max)

2.9 Power specifications

The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a native SATA power connector. See Figures 5 and 6 on page 23.
Barracuda Serial ATA V Product Manual, Rev. B 9

2.9.1 Power consumption

Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 9. Typical power measurements are based on an average of drives tested, under nomi­nal conditions, using 5.0V and 12.0V input voltage at 25°C ambient tempera­ture.
• Spinup power
Spinup power is measured fro m the time of power-on to the ti me t hat th e drive spindle reaches operating speed .
• Seek mode
During seek mode, the read/wr ite actuator arm moves toward a specific position on the d isc surface and do es not execute a read or write op era­tion. Servo electronics are active. Seek mode power represents the worst­case power consumption, using only random seeks with read or write latency time. This mode is not typical and is provided for worst-case infor­mation.
• Read/write power and current
Read/write power is measu red with the heads on track, based on a 16­sector write followed by a 32-msec delay, then a 16-sector read followed by a 32-msec delay.
• Operating power and current
Operating power is measured using 40 percent random seeks, 40 percent read/write mode (1 write for each 10 reads) and 20 percent drive idle mode.
• Idle mode power
Idle mode power is measur ed wi th the d r ive up to sp eed , wi th s ervo elec­tronics active and with the heads in a random track location.
• Standby mode
During Standby mode, the d rive accepts comma nds, but the drive is not spinning, and the servo and read/write electronics are in power-down mode.
