Shock and Vibration

Reliability and Maintenance

MTBF – 500,000 hours
Maxtor does not differentiate between various usage profiles. (.e. power-on hours, power saving modes, non-operating
periods or operating temperatures within the published specification.)
Start/Stop Cycles – 50,000 (minimum)
This indicates the minimum cycles for reliable start/stop function at a 60% confidence level.
AFR – 1.7%
The annualized average failure rate (AFR) applies to the period prior to the expiration of component design life, and is
based on failures chargeable to Maxtor. Determination of the AFR takes into account: a.) in-warranty field failure returns
less quality acceptance-related failures and b.) an AFR equaling an exponentially weighted moving and average monthly
failure rate multiplied by 12.
Component Design Life – 5 years (minimum)
Component design life is defined as a.) the time period before identified wear-out mechanisms impact the failure rate, or
b.) the time period up to the wear-out point at which useful component life expires.
Quality Acceptance Rate – 99.85% (<1,500 DPPM)
The quality acceptance rate indicates the percentage of Maxtor products successfully installed by our customers, and/or the
number of defective parts per million (DPPM) encountered during the entire installation process.
Preventative Maintenance – None

Data Reliability

Data Errors (non-recoverable)* – < 1 per 10
Seek Errors – < 1 per 10
*Average data error rate allowed with all error recovery features activated.

Acoustic Noise

Recorded during Active/Idle mode.
Sound power (per ISO 7779, 10 microphone)

EPA Energy Star Compliance
