2.7 Seek 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 5,000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.

Typical seek times (msec) Read Write

Average 12.5 13.5

Track-to-track 0.3 0.7

Read/write 15.5 16.5

Full stroke 26 28

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 Start/stop times

Power-on to Ready (sec) 6.5 (max)

Standby to Ready (sec) 6.0 (typical)

Ready to spindle stop (sec) 10 (typical)

2.9 Power specifications

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

Barracuda 5400.1 Product Manual, Rev. G 9

2.9.1 Power consumption

Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 10. 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 reaches operating speed.

• Seek mode

During seek mode, the read/write actuator arm moves toward a specific position on the disc surface and does not execute a read or write operation. Servo electronics are active. Seek mode power represents the worst-case 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 measured with the heads on track, based on a 16-sector write followed by a 32-msec delay, then a 16-sector read followed by a 32msec 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 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.
