www.seagate.com Drive Specifications 2.9.5.2 Nonoperating shock 2000GB and 1500GB models The nonoperating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in performance when subsequently put into operation is 300 Gs based on a nonrepetitive half-sine shock pulse of 2ms duration. 2.9.6 Vibration All vibration specifications assume that the drive is mounted securely with the input vibration applied at the drive mounting screws. Vibration may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis, with linear swept sine inputs. 2.9.6.1 Operating vibration The maximum vibration levels that the drive may experience while meeting the performance standards specified in this document are specified below. 2Hz to 22Hz 22Hz to 350Hz 350Hz to 500Hz 0.25 Gs (Limited displacement) 0.50 Gs 0.25 Gs 2.9.6.2 Nonoperating vibration The maximum nonoperating vibration levels that the drive may experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in performance when subsequently put into operation are specified below. 5Hz to 22Hz 22Hz to 350Hz 35Hz to 500Hz 3.0 Gs (limited displacement) 3.0 Gs 3.0 Gs 2.10 Acoustics Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). All measurements are consistent with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward. Note For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only. The number of seeks per second is defined by the following equation: (Number of seeks per second = 0.4 / (average latency + average access time) Table 3 Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor acoustics All models Idle* 2.1 bels (typ) 2.3 bels (max) Seek 2.3 bels (typ) 2.4 bels (max) *During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels.
