Seagate Enterprise Capacity 3.5 HDD/Constellation ES Constellation ES (.1) SAS - Page 14

3.3 PERFORMANCE • Programmable multi-segmentable cache buffer • 600MB/s maximum instantaneous data transfers. • 7200 RPM spindle. Average latency = 4.16ms • Background processing of queue • Supports start and stop commands (spindle stops spinning) • Adaptive seek velocity; improved seek performance Note. There is no significant performance difference between Self-Encrypting Drive and standard (non-Self-Encrypting Drive) models. 3.4 RELIABILITY • Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) of 0.73% • Mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,200,000 hours • Balanced low mass rotary voice coil actuator • Incorporates industry-standard Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) • 5-year warranty 3.5 FORMATTED CAPACITIES Standard OEM models are formatted to 512 bytes per block. The block size is selectable at format time and must be a multiple of 4 bytes. Users having the necessary equipment may modify the data block size before issuing a format command and obtain different formatted capacities than those listed. To provide a stable target capacity environment and at the same time provide users with flexibility if they choose, Seagate recommends product planning in one of two modes: 1. Seagate designs specify capacity points at certain block sizes that Seagate guarantees current and future products will meet. We recommend customers use this capacity in their project planning, as it ensures a stable operating point with backward and forward compatibility from generation to generation. The current guaranteed operating points for this product are: Table 1 Capacity (Blocks) Sector Size ST2000NM0001 ST2000NM0021 ST2000NM0041 Decimal 512 3,907,029,168 520 3,824,358,992 528 3,719,165,192 Hex E8E088B0 E3F31650 DDADF508 ST1000NM0001 ST1000NM0021 ST1000NM0041 Decimal 1,953,525,168 1,923,076,936 1,876,331,336 Hex 74706DB0 729FD348 6FD68B48 ST500NM0001 ST500NM0021 ST500NM0041 Decimal 976,773,168 961,538,472 938,165,672 Hex 3A386030 394FE9A8 37EB45A8 3.6 PROGRAMMABLE DRIVE CAPACITY Using the Mode Select command, the drive can change its capacity to something less than maximum. See the Mode Select (6) parameter list table in the SAS Interface Manual, part number 100293071. A value of zero in the Number of Blocks field indicates that the drive will not change the capacity it is currently formatted to have. A number other than zero and less than the maximum number of LBAs in the Number of Blocks field changes the total drive capacity to the value in the Number of Blocks field. A value greater than the maximum number of LBAs is rounded down to the maximum capacity. 3.7 FACTORY-INSTALLED OPTIONS You may order the following items which are incorporated at the manufacturing facility during production or packaged before shipping. Some of the options available are (not an exhaustive list of possible options): • Other capacities can be ordered depending on sparing scheme and sector size requested. • Single-unit shipping pack. The drive is normally shipped in bulk packaging to provide maximum protection against transit damage. Units shipped individually require additional protection as provided by the single unit shipping pack. Users planning single unit distribution should specify this option. • The Safety and Regulatory Agency Specifications, part number 75789512, is usually included with each standard OEM drive shipped, but extra copies may be ordered.
