5.2.2 Format command execution time (minutes) When changing sector sizes, the format times shown below may need to be increased by 30 minutes. Maximum (with verify) Maximum (without verify) 600GB 119 60 450GB 90 45 300GB 58 29 Note. There is approximately a 1.5 increase in time to format a SED drive versus a non-SED drive of the same capacity. Execution time measured from receipt of the last byte of the Command Descriptor Block (CDB) to the request for a Status Byte Transfer to the Initiator (excluding connect/disconnect). 5.2.3 General performance characteristics Sustainable disk transfer rate*: Minimum Maximum 122 Mbytes/sec (typical) 204 Mbytes/sec (typical) SAS Interface maximum instantaneous transfer rate 600 Mbytes/sec* per port Logical block sizes Default is 512-byte data blocks Sector sizes variable to 512, 520, and 528 kbytes. Read/write consecutive sectors on a track Yes Flaw reallocation performance impact (for flaws reallocated at format time using the spare sectors per sparing zone reallocation scheme.) Negligible Average rotational latency 2.0 msec *Assumes system ability to support the rates listed and no cable loss. 1 MB/sec = 1,000,000 bytes/sec 5.3 Start/stop time The drive accepts the commands listed in the SAS Interface Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has been applied. If the drive receives a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port and has not received a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 20 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure). If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0 before receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive, the drive waits for a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1. After receiving a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1, the drive waits for a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive. After receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 20 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure). 10 Cheetah 15K.7 SAS Product Manual, Rev.
