Formatted capacities

Standard OEM models are formatted to 512 bytes per block. The block size is selectable at format time and

must be one of the supported sizes listed in the table below.

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:

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, may be included with each stan-

dard OEM drive shipped.
