Seagate drives also may be used at the maximum available capacity at a given sector size, but the excess capacity above the guaranteed level will vary between 10K and 15K families and from generation to gener- ation, depending on how each sector size actually formats out for zone frequencies and splits over servo bursts.
The following accessories are available. All kits may be installed in the field. • Evaluation kit, part number 73473641. This kit provides an adapter card (“T-card”) to allow cable connections for two FC ports and DC power. • Single-unit shipping pack. Barracuda ES.2 FC Product Manual, Rev. B...

Non-operating –40° to 158°F (–40° to 70°C) package ambient with a maximum gradient of 36°F (20°C) per hour. This specification assumes that the drive is packaged in the shipping container designed by Seagate for use with drive. HDA Temp.
Disc drives shipped as loose load (not palletized) general freight will be packaged to withstand drops from heights as defined in the table below. For additional details refer to Seagate specifications 30190-001 (under 100 lbs/45 kg) or 30191-001 (over 100 lbs/45 Kg).
Drives packaged in single or multipacks with a gross weight of 20 pounds (8.95 kg) or less by Seagate for general freight shipment shall withstand a drop test from 48 inches (1,070 mm) against a concrete floor or equivalent. 6.4.4.2 Vibration a.
The sil- ver, copper, nickel and gold films used in Seagate products are especially sensitive to the presence of sulfide, chloride, and nitrate contaminants. Sulfur is found to be the most damaging. In addition, electronic components should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%.

DAR is most effective when AWRE and ARRE are enabled—this is the default setting from the Seagate factory. With AWRE and ARRE disabled DAR is unable to reallocate the failing location and will report an error sense code indicating that a write command is being attempted to a previously failing location.
Installation Barracuda ES.2 FC disc drive installation is a plug-and-play process. There are no jumpers, switches, or termi- nators on the drive. Simply plug the drive into the host’s 40-pin Fibre Channel backpanel connector (FC- — SCA) no cables are required. See Section 9.5 for additional information about this connector.
(F) is applied to the fourth point. Note. Before mounting the drive in any kind of 3.5-inch to 5.25-inch adapter frame, verify with Seagate Technology that the drive can meet the shock and vibration specifications given herein while mounted in such an adapter frame.
Increased radiated emissions may result if you do not provide the maximum surface area ground connection between system ground and drive ground. This is the system designer’s and integrator’s responsibility. Barracuda ES.2 FC Product Manual, Rev. B...
