Preface
This manual contains information for users of the Seagate®
Medalist Pro SCSI disc drives. It provides support services, performance specifications, and initial setup information. Additional
informat io n is availa ble in the
number 32661-001). Contact your Seagate sales representative
if you need to ord er t his publicati on.
Handling precautions
• Disc drives are fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Use a
padded surface during installation to avoid damaging the
drive.
• Keep the drive in its antistatic bag until you are ready to
install it .
• Protect the drive from static discharge by making sure you
are well grounded before touching the drive. We recommend
wearing a grounded wrist strap (Seagate part number
12263496) throughout the installation process. Do not touch
the connectors or any part of the printed circuit board.
• Alwa ys handle the drive by its edges or frame.
• Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit board or
the top of the drive.

Electrostatic discharge protection
Caution.
All drive electronic assemblies are sensitive to static electricity,
due to the electrostatically sensitive devices used within the
drive cir cui try. Although some devices such as metal-oxide semiconductors are extremely sensitive, all semiconductors, as well
as some resi stors and capacitors, may be damaged or deg raded
by exposure to static electricity.
Electrost atic damage t o electr onic de vices may be caus ed by the
direct discharge of a charged conductor or by exposure to the
static fields surrounding charged objects. To avoid damaging
drive electronic assemblies, observe the following precautions
when installing or servicing the drive:
• Ground yourself to the drive whenever the drive electronics
are or will be expos ed. Connect yourself to ground with a wrist
strap (Seagate part number 12263496). Connection may be
made to any grounded metal assembly. As a general rule,
remember that you and the drive electronics must all be
grounded to avoid potentially damaging static discharges.
• Turn off the power before removing or installing the DC power
cable.
• Do not remov e any circuit boards from the drive.
• Never use an ohmmeter on any circuit boards.
• When installing th e drive on a carrier or t ra y, discharge the car-
rier or tray pr io r to ins e rting it into th e sy st e m.
Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing depot repair will damage components and may
void the war ranty.
Medalist Pro Installation Guide, Rev. B 3
Important safety information and precautions
Caution.
Use proper safety techniques for safe, reliable operation of this
unit.
The procedures in this manual and labels on the unit contain
warnings and cautions that must be carefully read and followed
to minimize or eliminate the risk of personal injury. The warnings
point out conditions or practices that may endanger you or others. The cautions point out condit ions or practices that m ay damage the unit, poss ibly making it unsafe for use.
Always observe the foll owing warnings and pre cautions:
• Follow all cautions and warnings in the procedures.
• Use sound safety practices when operating, installing, or
removing the unit.
• Use caution when troubleshooting a unit that has voltages
present. Turn off power to the unit before removing it.
• Ensure that the internal temperature of the rack or cabinet
does not exceed the limits defined for the drive when the drive
is mounted in an equipment rack or cabinet. When units are
stacked vertically, pay special attention to the top where temperatures ar e usually highest.
• Follow the precautions listed above in “Electrostatic discharge
protection.”
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive. Return the
entire drive for depot repair if any circuit board is defective.
Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing depot
repair will damage components and may void the warranty.
Use forced-air ventilation when bench-testing the
drive to ensur e proper cooling of drive com ponents.
4 Medalist Pro Installat ion Guide, Rev. B
• Do not remove the head and disc assembly (HDA) from the
drive. Return the entire drive for depot repair if the HDA is
defective.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the HDA. It is not field repair-
able. If the sealed HDA is opened by personnel not performing
depot repair, this will damage components and void the
warranty.
As a component, this drive is designed to be installed and operated in accordance with UL1950, EN60950, CSA C22.2 950M89, and VDE0805.
Seagate takes all reasonable steps to ensure that its products
are certifiable to currently accepted standards. Typical applications of these disc drives include customer packaging and subsystem design. Safety agencies conditionally certify component
assemblies, such as the Medalist disc drive, based on their final
acceptability in the end-use product. The subsystem designers
are responsible for meeting these conditions of acceptability in
obtaining safety-regulatory agency compliance in their end-use
products and for certifying where required by law. A necessary
part of meeting safety requirements is the provision for overcurrent protection on drive SELV supply voltages.
This unit is a component part and as such is not meant to comply with FCC or similar national requirements as a stand-alone
unit. Engineering radiated emissions test results are available
through the Seagate Safety Department to assist the subsystem
designer.

General description
Medalist Pro SCSI disc drives are high-speed, random-access
digital-data storage devices.
The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure
designed for the drive. This is often a rack within the system or
an external enclosur e desi gned to house one or more di sc driv es
or other peripheral units. In either case, the disc drive must
receive adequate cooling (refer to “Providing adequate cooling”)
and it must be sufficiently grounded and shielded from emissions. The
001) contains guidelines for a properl y designed enclosure.
