Momentus 5400.3 PSD SATA Product Manual, Rev. A
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-play connectivity. It is not normally 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, Serial ATA makes the transition from pa rallel ATA easy by providing legacy softwar e suppo rt. Seri al
ATA was designed to allow you to install a Serial ATA host adapter and Serial ATA disc drive in your current
system and expect all of your existing applications to work as normal.
The Serial ATA interface connects each disc drive in a point-to-point 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 environment to host software where two
devices on separate Serial ATA 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 Serial ATA
environment.
The Serial ATA 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 ada pter cont ains a set of registe rs that sha dow the conte nt s of the trad i tional devi ce r egisters, referred to as the Shadow Register Block. All Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized
AT Attachment” specification. The specification can be downloaded from http://www.serialata.org.
1.2 Non-volatile cache (NVC)
Momentus 5400.3 PSD SATA include a non-volatile cache feature. For a user to see the benefits of NVC, the
host operating system must support the “Non-volatile cache” commands (B6h) and associated subcommands
as specified in the ATA-8 specification. See Section 4.3 for the list of commands supported by Momentus
5400.3 PSD SATA drives (including the Non-volatile cache commands).
Non-volatile cache is designed to:
• Improve performance
• Provide power savings and battery life (in notebook systems)
• Improve reliability
• Reduce acoustic noise in some read/write operations
Improve performance
The non-volatile cache (NVC) improves performance by writing and reading to the non-volatile cache rather
than waiting for the rotating media to complete spinning-up from sleep, standby, and hibernate modes. Performance improvements may also be seen from minimizing disc seeks and enabling more I/Os per second. The
non-volatile cache also improves cold boot performance when used with operating systems designed to take
advantage of this cache.
Momentus 5400.3 PSD SATA Product Manual, Rev. A

Provide power savings and battery life
NVC decreases power consumption by reducing the amount of time the discs are spinning in the HDA.
Improve reliability
Shock and vibration impacts during writes is negligible when writing to NVC memory. This results in an overall
Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) of less than 0.50%.
Reduced acoustics
Reads and writes from NVC memory may occur without the acoustic impact of spinning media and actuator
movement.

2.7 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 m easu red 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.

2.9 Power specifications
The drive receives DC power (+5V) through a native SATA power connector.
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, 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 operati on. Servo ele ctronics ar e acti ve. Seek mode power is mea sure d based on
three random seek operations every 100 msecs. This mode is not typical.
• Read/write power and current
Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on three 63 sector read or write operations
every 100 msecs.
• 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 model

2.9.2 Deferred spinup
Momentus 5400.3 PSD SATA drives do not support the deferred spinup option. If you require this option, refer
to the Momentus 5400.3 SATA Blade Server family of drives.
2.9.3 Conducted noise
Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on
the +5 volt line.
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.

2.9.5 Power-management modes
The drive provides programmable power management to provide greater energy efficiency. In most systems,
you can control power management through the system setup program. The drive features the following
power-management modes:
Tab le 4: Power management modes
Power modes Heads Spindle Buffer
Active (operating) Tracking Rotating Full power
Idle, performance Tracking Rotating Self refresh—low power
Idle, active Floating Rotating Self refresh—low power
Idle, low power Parked Rotating Self refresh—low power
Standby Parked Stopped Self refresh—low power
Sleep Parked Stopped Self refresh—low power
• Active mode
The drive is in Active mode during the read/write and seek operations.
• Idle mode
The buffer remains enabled, and the drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time disc
access is necessary.
• Standby mode
The drive enters Standby mode when the host sends a Standby Immediate comma nd. If the ho st has set the
standby timer, the drive can also enter Standby mode automatically after the drive has been inactive for a
specifiable length of time. The standby tim er delay is established using a Standby or Idle command. In Sta ndby
mode, the drive buffer is in Self Refresh Low Power mode, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest.
The drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time disc access is necessary.
• Sleep mode
The drive enter s S leep m ode after rece iv ing a Slee p com man d fro m th e ho st. In Sl eep mod e, th e dr ive buffer
is in Self Refresh Low Power mode, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive leaves Sleep
mode after it receives a Hard Reset or Soft Reset from the host. After receiving a reset, the drive exits Sleep
mode and enters Standby mode with all current translation parameters intact.
• Idle and Standby timers
Each time the drive performs an Active function (read, write or seek), the standby timer is reinitialized and
begins counting down from its specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer reaches zero before any
drive activity is required, the drive makes a transition to Standby mode. In both Idle and Standby mode, the
drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode when disc access is necessary.

2.15 Environmental protection
Seagate designs its products to meet environmental protection requirements worldwide, including regulations
restricting certain chemica l subst ances .
2.15.1 European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
The European U nion Restr icti on of Hazard ous S ubst ance s (RoHS ) Dire cti ve re strict s the p resen ce of ch emic al
substances, including Lead (Pb), in electronic products effective July 2006.
A number of parts and materials in Seagate products are procured from external suppliers. We rely on the
rep-resentat ions o f our sup pl iers reg ardi ng the pr esence of RoHS subst ances in these p arts and mate rials. Our
supplier contracts require compliance with our chemical substance restrictions, and our suppliers document
their compliance wi th our re quire ment s by providing material content declarations for al l par ts an d mater ial s for
the disc drives documented in this publication. Current supplier declarations include disclosure of the inclusion
of any RoHS-regulated substance in such parts or materials.
Seagate also has internal system s in place to en sure ongoing complian ce with the RoHS Directive and all laws
and regulations which restrict chemical conte nt in electron ic produ cts. T hese system s include sta ndar d operating procedures that ensure that restricted substances are not utilized in our manufacturing operations, laboratory analytical validation testing, and an internal auditing process to ensure that all standard operating
procedures are complied with.
2.16 Corrosive environment
Seagate electronic drive components pass accelerated corrosion testing equivalent to 10 years exposure to
light industrial environments containing sulfurous gases, chlorine and nitric oxide, classes G and H per ASTM
B845. However, this accelerated testing cannot duplicate every potential application environment.
Users should use caution exposing any electronic components to uncontrolled chemical pollutants and corrosive chemicals as electr onic dr i ve com ponen t reliab ilit y can be af fecte d by th e i nst allation environment. The sil-
ver, copper, nickel and gold films used in Seagate products are especially sensitive to the presence of sulfide,
chloride, and nitr ate c ont ami na nt s. S ulfur is found to be the m ost dam aging . In ad di tion, e lectron i c comp onent s
should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or
exposed to an am bient rel at ive hum idity gr eate r th an 9 5%. Mat erial s used in cabin et fa bri cation , such as vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corrosive compounds should be minimized or eliminated. The useful life of any
electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free alternatives.

S
r
r
Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host
adapter. There is no master/slave relationship because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point
relationships. 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 means both drives behave as if they are
Device 0 (master) devices.
Serial AT A dr iv es are designed for easy installation wi th no jump ers, t erm inator s, or other setti n gs. It is not n ecessary to set any jumpers on this drive for proper operation. The jumper block adjacent to the signal connector
is for factory use only.

4.3.1 Identify Device command
The Identify Device command (command code ECH) transfers information about the drive to the host following
power up. The data is organized as a single 512-byte block of data, whose contents are shown in the table on
page 27. All reserved bits or words should be set to zero. Parameters listed with an “x” are drive-specific or
vary with the state of the drive. See Section 2.0 on page 5 for default parameter settings.
The following commands contain drive-specific features that may not be included in the Serial ATA specification.

4.3.2 Set Features command
This command con trols the implementation of var ious features that the drive sup port s. When the drive receives
this command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the register does not represent a feature that the drive supports, the command is aborted.
Power-on default has the read look-ahead and write caching features enabled. The acceptable values for the
Features register are defined as follows:

4.3.3 S.M.A.R.T. commands
S.M.A.R.T. provides near-term failure prediction for disc drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive monitors predetermined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If self-monitoring determines
that a failure is likely, S.M.A.R.T. makes a status report available to the host. Not all failures are predictable.
S.M.A.R.T. predictability is limited to the attributes the drive can monitor. For more information on S.M.A.R.T.
commands and implementation, see the Draft ATA-5 Standard.
SeaTools diagnostic software activates a built-in drive self-test (DST S.M.A.R.T. command for D4H) that eliminates unnecessary drive returns. The diagnostic software ships with all new drives and is also available at:
http://seatools.seagate.com.
This drive is ship ped wi th S. M.A.R. T. fe ature s disab led. You m ust ha ve a r ecent BI OS or so ft wa re pa ckage that
supports S.M.A.R.T. to enable this feature. The table below shows the S.M.A.R.T. command codes that the
drive uses.
