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 the lower limit for the threshold curve* 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.
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.
2.13 NVIRONMENTAL ROTECTION Seagate designs its products to meet environmental protection requirements worldwide, including regulations restricting certain chemical substances. 2.13.1 European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, restricts the presence of chemical substances, including Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, PBB and PBDE, in electronic products, effective July 2006.
Users should use caution exposing any electronic components to uncontrolled chemical pollutants and corrosive chemicals as electronic drive component reliability can be affected by the installation environment. 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.
ONFIGURING AND OUNTING THE RIVE This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive. ANDLING AND TATIC ISCHARGE RECAUTIONS After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions.
ONFIGURING AND OUNTING THE RIVE RIVE OUNTING You can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom-mounting holes. Refer to for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when mounting the drive: Figure 3 Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (0.76 mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.
Figure 4 Mounting dimensions (for FIPS 140-2 models) BREATHER HOLE, DO NOT COVER OR SEAL RECOMMENDED CASE TEMP MEASUREMENT LOCATION ON THE END OF THE DRIVE Do Not Remove * Tamper Indicator * TAMPER PROOF LABELS ON BOTH SIDES DO NOT PEEL OR REMOVE. FIPS 140-2 Models Contain 3 Tamper Evident Stickers with the marking "Tamper Indicator - Do Not Remove".
For more information, refer to 'Security Rules' section in the 'Security Policy' document uploaded on the NIST website. To reference the product certification visit: http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/1401vend.htm, and search for “Seagate”. Security Level 2.
ATA (SATA) I ERIAL NTERFACE ATA (SATA) I ERIAL NTERFACE These drives use the industry-standard Serial ATA interface that supports FIS data transfers. It supports ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; multiword DMA modes 0–2, and Ultra DMA modes 0–6. The drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.
