Description and Features WD Purple PR1334M • Pre-emptive Wear Leveling (PWL) —This WD feature provides a solution for pro- tecting the recording media against mechanical wear. In cases where the drive is so busy with incoming commands that it is forced to stay in a same cylinder posi- tion for a long time, the PWL control engine initiates forced seeks so that disk lubricant maintains an even distribution and does not become depleted.
Page 15
WD Purple PR1334M Description and Features • Power Management — The drive supports the ATA and SATA power management command set, allowing the host to reduce the power consumption of the drive by issuing a variety of power management commands.

Product Features WD Purple PR1334M SATA 6 Gb/s SATA 6 Gb/s is the next generation interface for SATA hard drives. It adds to the functionality of the SATA 1.5 Gb/s interface with the following features: Native Command Queuing (NCQ ) — server feature for performance in random I/ O transaction environments.
WD Purple PR1334M Product Features Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) In perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR), the magnetization of each data bit is aligned vertically to the spinning disk, rather than longitudinally as has been the case in hard drive technology for decades. In longitudinal recording, as the bits become smaller and closer together, they experience an increasing demagnetizing field, much like two bar magnets that are placed end-to-end repel one another.
Product Features WD Purple PR1334M Native Command Queuing (NCQ ) These drives support Native Command Queuing. NCQ is a true Enterprise feature for environments such as database, Web servers, and e-mail servers. Performance of a random I/O workload can be improved through intelligent re-...
WD Purple PR1334M Product Features the Write Same by issuing SCT Status requests. This frees the host system to do other tasks while the media is being cleared. 3.11.2 Temperature Reporting The SCT Temperature Reporting (SCT TR) feature allows a host system to access temperature information in the drive.
Product Features WD Purple PR1334M 3.13.2 Thermal Management The drive is designed with Thermal Management features for high reliability. State-of-the-art mechanical design—Mechanical design is optimized to reduce the drives temperature. State-of-the-art thermal dissipation and windage design is employed. Closed loop servo management—Thermal management monitors the drive temperature and can control servo operations to maintain a stable operating temperature under high temperature conditions.
WD Purple PR1334M Product Features 3.13.3 Internal Environmental Protection System This dual filter system protects the inside environment of the drive from contamination. System features include: Dual Filtration System to ensure fast clean-up times Directed airflow to maximize mechanical cooling...
Product Features WD Purple PR1334M 3.13.8 Defect Management Every WD drive undergoes factory-level intelligent burn in, which thoroughly tests for and maps out defective sectors on the media before the drive leaves the manufacturing facility. Following the factory tests, a primary defect list is created. The list contains the cylinder, head, and sector numbers for all defects.
WD Purple PR1334M Product Features retry procedure applies only to read data recovery. The Read/Write Retry procedure performs the actual retry operation. When an extended retry operation is successful, the controller continues with the command. The controller clears any changes in track offset or data DAC settings before the command continues.
Product Features WD Purple PR1334M activity indication. According to the SATA spec, “Staggered Spin-up Disable and Activity Signal shall not be enabled at the same time.” 3.18.1 Staggered Spinup When multiple disks are installed in an enclosure, it is desirable to provide a simple mechanism by which a subsystem controller can sequence hard drive initialization to minimize the current load presented during power up.
WD Purple PR1334M Product Features If a defective sector is found during a write cache operation, that sector is automatically relocated before the write occurs. 3.19.2 Read Cache CacheFlow implements a multiple segment read cache. Cache segments are assigned to read commands as they are received from the host.
Product Features WD Purple PR1334M 3.23 Security Mode The Security Mode feature set allows the user to create a device lock password that prevents unauthorized hard drive access even if the drive is removed from the computer. This feature varies by drive configuration and may not be available on all configurations.

Installation and Setup Procedures WD Purple PR1334M 5.1.4 Removal From Static Shielding Bag Before removing the drive from its static shielding bag: Make sure that your work station is properly grounded. Wear a properly grounded wrist strap with good skin contact.
WD Purple PR1334M Installation and Setup Procedures provide additional ground connections between the HDA and the system chassis. If the drive isn't grounded via mounting screws as described under “Mounting” on page 40, there may be increased electrical emissions (EMI).
Installation and Setup Procedures WD Purple PR1334M Figure 12. Jumper Settings Native Gen2 (Enabled) Default Gen2 enabled (jumper on pins 5-6). SATA 3 Gb/s Standard configuration – no jumper added; spread data transfer speed activated. spectrum clocking, PM2, Native Gen2, and Force Gen1 disabled.
WD Purple PR1334M Installation and Setup Procedures 5.3.2 Attach the Power Supply Cable If your system does not support hot plugging (see “Hot Plug Support” on page 21), it must be turned off and unplugged before installing your hard drive. This avoids the possibility of reversing the polarity of the power connections and eliminating current surges that can damage either the drive or computer.
Maintenance WD Purple PR1334M AINTENANCE The hard drive requires no preventative maintenance and contains no user-serviceable parts. The service and repair of drives can only be performed at a WD Service Center. Please con- tact your WD representative for warranty information and service/return procedures.
