    DMA controller. Time-Limited Error Recovery (TLER) HGST has delivered coordinated error management in the form of Time Limited Error Recovery (TLER). TLER-capable hard drives will perform the normal error recovery and, after 7 seconds, issue an error message to the RAID controller and defer the error recovery task until a later time. With coordinated error handling, the hard drive is not dropped from the RAID array, thereby avoiding the entire RAID recovery, replacement, rebuild, and return experience.

    Adaptation to environmental conditions is crucial to the successful deployment of RAFF. This  design intelligently applies RAFF selectively and adapts to with individual drive parameters to maintain maximum performance in the hard drive. HGST Hard Disk Drive Technical Reference Manual...
  • Page 23: Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (Pmr)

    PMR recording layer tends to be thicker than that used for longitudinal recording, providing increased signal for the read heads. All of these benefits enable HGST engineers to reliably pack more data on a given disk than is possible with conventional longitudinal recording.
  • Page 24: Command Transport (Sct)

    Upon power loss, the drive utilizes stored spindle energy to back up the HDD cache to on- board flash. This allows deeper write queues which boosts performance, while minimizing data loss/ corruption such as write splices that can occur during unexpected power losses.
