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 quantities will vary based on various factors, including file size, file format, features and application software. Actual data rates may vary depending on operating environment and other factors. The export or re-export of hardware or software containing encryption may be regulated by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (for more information, visit www.bis.doc.gov), and controlled for import and use outside of the U.S. Seagate reserves the right to change, without notice, product offerings or specifications.

Seagate Desktop HDD Product Manual, Rev. A 4

1.0 Introduction

This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the following: Seagate® Desktop HDD model drives:

ST6000DM001 ST5000DM002 ST4000DM000

These drives provide the following key features:

• High instantaneous (burst) data-transfer rates (up to 600MB per second).

• TGMR recording technology provides the drives with increased areal density.

• State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms.

• Native Command Queuing with command ordering to increase performance in demanding applications.

• Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor intervention.

• Seagate AcuTrac™ servo technology delivers dependable performance, even with hard drive track widths of only 75

nanometers.

• Seagate OptiCache™ technology boosts overall performance by as much as 45% over the previous generation.

• Seagate SmartAlign™ technology provides a simple, transparent migration to Advanced Format 4K sectors

• Quiet operation.

• Compliant with RoHS requirements in China and Europe.

• SeaTools diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessary drive returns.

• Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting.

• Supports latching SATA cables and connectors.

• Worldwide Name (WWN) capability uniquely identifies the drive.

1.1 About 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 SA T A 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 SA 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 SA TA 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.org.

The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two devices on

Note

Seagate Desktop HDD Product Manual, Rev. A 5

separate SA TA 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 rate of <55TB/year. The MTBF specification for the drive assumes the I/O workload does not exceed the average annualized workload rate limit of 55TB/year. Workloads exceeding the annualized rate may degrade the drive MTBF and impact product reliability. The average annualized workload rate limit is in units of TB per year, or TB per 8760 power-on hours. Workload rate limit = TB transferred × (8760/recorded power-on hours).
