1.0 Introduction

This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the following Seagate® SV35 model drives:
• ST3500641AV
• ST3250824AV
• ST3160812AV These drives provide the following key features:
• Specifically designed for surveillance DVRs. Supports a subset of the ATA/ATAPI-7, Rev. 3e ATA Streaming Command Feature set. See Section 4.1.5 on page 39 for additional information about Streaming features.
• Optimized power for surveillance systems--spinup current limited to a maximum of 2.0 amps.
• Seek profile optimized for surveillance performance and power consumption.
• 7,200-RPM spindle speed.
• 16-Mbyte buffer: ST3500641AV.
• 8-Mbyte buffer: ST3250824AV and ST3160812AV.
• High instantaneous (burst) data transfer rates (up to 100 Mbytes per second) using Ultra DMA mode 5.
• Tunneling Magnetoresistive (TMR) recording heads.
• State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms.
• Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor intervention.
• 350 Gs nonoperating shock.
• Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting.
• Support for Read Multiple and Write Multiple commands.
• Support for autodetection of master/slave drives that use cable select (CSEL).
• SeaTools diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessary drive returns.
• The 3D Defense System™, which includes Drive Defense, Data Defense, and Diagnostic Defense, offers the industry’s most comprehensive protection for disc drives.

2.6 Seek time

Seek measurem ent s a re t ake n wi th nom inal po w er a t 25 °C amb ient temperature. All times are measured usi ng 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 5,000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.
T yp ical seek times (msec) Re ad Write
Track-to-track 0.8 1.0
Average 18 20
Average latency: 4.16 4.16
Note. These drives are designed to consistently meet the seek times represented in this manual. Physical seeks,
regardless of mode (such as track-to-track and average), are expected to meet or exceed 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 Power specifications

The drive receives DC power (+5V and +12V) through a four-pin standard drive power connector.

2.8.1 Power consumption

Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 13. 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 from the time of power-on to the time that the drive spindle re aches operating speed.
• Seek mode
During seek mod e, the read /write actuator arm move s toward a spe cific positi on on the d isc surface and does not execute a read or write operation. 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.
• Operating power and current
Operating power is measured using a standard Surveillance Storage Profile.
• Idle mode powe r
Idle mode power is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo electronics active and with the heads in a random track location.
• Standby mode
During Standby mode, the drive accepts commands, but the drive is not spinning, and the servo and read/ write electronics are in power-down mode.

2.8.2 Conducted noise

Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 80-ohm resistive load on the +12 volt line or an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5 volt line.
• Using 12-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 120 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
• Using 5-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 100 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
Note. Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write
current.
