1.0 Introduction This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifications for the following Seagate ® Barracuda Green SATA model drives: ST2000DL003 ST1500DL003 These drives provide the following key features: • 5900 RPM spindle speed ® • Seagate SmartAlign™ technology manages read-modify-write conditions dynamically in the drive without host computer intervention, allowing a 4K drive to behave like a legacy 512-byte sector drive without the necessity of a hardware utility.

Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA Revision 3.0”. The specification can be downloaded from www.sata-io.org. www.seagate.com Barracuda Green SATA Product Manual, Rev. D...
2.0 Drive Specifications Unless otherwise noted, all specifications are measured under ambient conditions, at 25°C, and nominal power. For convenience, the phrases the drive and this drive are used throughout this manual to indicate the following drive models: ST2000DL003 ST1500DL003 2.1 Specification summary tables The specifications listed in the following tables are for quick reference.

Table 1 Drive specifications summary for 2000GB and 1500GB Models (Continued) Drive specification Nonrecoverable read errors Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) Warranty Load/Unload cycles Supports Hotplug operation per the Serial ATA Revision 3.0 specification *One Gbyte equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and formatting.
2.7 Start/stop times Start/stop times for alll models are listed below. Start/stop times @ 25°C Power-on to ready (max) Standby to ready (max) Ready to spindle stop (max) Time-to-ready may be longer than normal if the drive power is removed without going through normal OS power- down procedures.
2.8.2 Conducted noise Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 80-ohm resistive load on the +12V line or an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5V line. • Using 12-V power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 120 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10MHz.
(30% per hour max) 5% to 95% noncondensing (30% per hour max) 37.7°C (99.9°F max) 40°C (104°F max) –304.8m to 3048m (–1000 ft. to 10,000+ ft.) –304.8m to 12,192m (–1000 ft. to 40,000+ ft.) Barracuda Green SATA Product Manual, Rev. D www.seagate.com...
2.9.5.2 Nonoperating shock 2000GB and 1500GB models The nonoperating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in performance when subsequently put into operation is 300 Gs based on a nonrepetitive half-sine shock pulse of 2ms duration.
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process is the use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses this threshold curve (originated in ISO 389- 7) to discern tone audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios according to Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.
EN55022, Class B and the immunity levels are defined by EN55024. Drives are tested in representative end-user systems. Although CE-marked Seagate drives comply with the directives when used in the test systems, we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply with the directives.
As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission verification or certification of the device is required. Seagate has tested this device in enclosures as described above to ensure that the total assembly (enclosure, disk drive, motherboard, power supply, etc.) does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J, Part 15 of the FCC rules.
The silver, 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%.

4.0 Serial ATA Interface These drives use the industry-standard Serial ATA (SATA) interface that supports FIS data transfers. It supports ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0 to 4; multiword DMA modes 0 to 2, and Ultra DMA modes 0 to 6. For detailed information about the Serial ATA interface, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment”...

4.3.2 Set Features command This command controls the implementation of various features that the drive supports. When the drive receives this command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the register does not represent a feature that the drive supports, the command is aborted.
SeaTools diagnostic software activates a built-in drive self-test (DST S.M.A.R.T. command for D4 unnecessary drive returns. The diagnostic software ships with all new drives and is also available at: http://seatools.seagate.com. This drive is shipped with S.M.A.R.T. features disabled. You must have a recent BIOS or software package that supports S.M.A.R.T.
