1.0 Introduction This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the following Seagate® ST1.3 Series drives: • ST612712DE-12GB, ST610712DE-10GB, ST680712DE-8GB and ST660712DE-6GB disc drives with a ZIF (zero insertion force) connector using an IDE interface. • ST612712DEG-12GB, ST610712DEG-10GB, ST680712DEG-8GB and ST660712DEG-6GB disc drives with a ZIF (zero insertion force) connector using an IDE interface. These models incorporate an additional free-fall sensor for robust drop performance. These drives provide the following key features. • 3,600-RPM spindle speed and a 2-Mbyte buffer combined for superior read/write performance. • Quiet operation. Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor. • Tunneling Magnetoresistive (TMR) recording heads provide the drives with increased areal density. • State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms. • 2.0K Gs nonoperating shock, and 300 Gs operating shock. • SeaTools™ diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessary drive returns.
