  • Page 21: Acoustics

    Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this pro- cess 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.

  • Page 26: Environmental Protection

    The sil- ver, 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. In addition, electronic components should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%.

  • Page 27: Configuring And Mounting The Drive

    Refer to Table 1 on page 2 to determine which mode is best for your particular solution. Note. As with any disc drive, Seagate highly encourages consumers to consistently back up their data as well as the security pre-boot password, user name, and domain name on another storage device.

  • Page 28: Configuring The Drive

    • Do not obstruct the breather hole located on the top cover of the drive. Refer to Figure 4 for the exact location of this hole. Configuring the drive Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host adapter.
