Drive Specifications
2.7
Start/stop times
Time-to-ready may be longer than normal if the drive power is removed without going through normal OS
powerdown procedures.
2.8
Power specifications
The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a native SATA power connector. Refer to
Figure 1 on page 19
.
2.8.1
Power consumption
Power requirements for the drives are listed in
Table 3
,
Table 4
,
Table 5
and
Table 6
. 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.
•
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-ms delay,
then a 16-sector read followed by a 32-ms 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.
