1.8.6.2 Nonoperating vibration
The following lists the maximum nonoperating vibration that the drive
may experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in
performance when put into operation.
5–22 Hz 0.2-inch displacement to 5.0 Gs
22–350 Hz 5.0 Gs acceleration (zero to peak)

1.9 Drive acoustics

Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound
power levels (no pure tones). All measurements are generally consistent
with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under
essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the
drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.

1.10 Electromagnetic susceptibility

The drive operates without errors when subjected to the following:
Radiated noise*
Electrostatic discharge*
Magnetic field strength
* Electrostatic discharge and radiated noise susceptibility are measured
with the drive mounted in a representative computer system (mounted
to a ground plane with earth grounding). Discharges are applied to the
bezel or other external surfaces on the ground plane.
