Cheetah 36ES Product Manual, Rev. A error (15h) is reported with a Medium error (3h) or Hardware error (4h) reported in the Sense Key. This is an unrecoverable seek error. Unrecoverable seek errors are classified as failures for MTBF calculations. Refer to the SCSI Interface Product Manual, part number 75789509, for Request Sense information.
Case 4 - Current I/O process allowed during insertion or removal, except on the device being changed Seagate Cheetah 36ES disc drives support all four hot plugging cases. Provision shall be made by the system such that a device being inserted makes power and ground connections prior to the connection of any device signal contact to the bus.
Cheetah 36ES Product Manual, Rev. A The process of measuring off-line attributes and saving data can be forced by the RTZ command. Forcing S.M.A.R.T. will reset the timer so that the next scheduled interrupt will be two hours. The drive can be interrogated by the host to determine the time remaining before the next scheduled measure- ment and data logging process will occur.
