0.01A * During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels. †5W IDLE with DIPLM Enabled Seagate Surveillance HDD Product Manual, Rev. B (Draft 2)
• Using 5-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 100 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10MHz. Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write current. Note Seagate Surveillance HDD Product Manual, Rev. B (Draft 2)
If the standby timer reaches zero before any drive activity is required, the drive makes a transi- tion to Standby mode. In both Idle and Standby mode, the drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode when disk access is necessary. Seagate Surveillance HDD Product Manual, Rev. B (Draft 2)

Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs) 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 this threshold curve (originated in ISO 389-7) 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.
Storage Maximum storage periods are 180 days within original unopened Seagate shipping package or 60 days unpackaged within the defined non-operating limits (refer to environmental section in this manual). Storage can be extended to 1 year packaged or unpackaged under optimal environmental conditions (25°C, <40% relative humidity non-condensing, and non-corrosive environment).
Federal 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. Operation with non-certified assemblies is likely to result in interference to radio and television reception.
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. 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%.
For installations which require cables, users can connect the drive as illustrated in Figure 2 Attaching SATA cabling Signal connector Power connector Signal cable Power cable Each cable is keyed to ensure correct orientation. Surveillance HDD drives support latching SATA connectors. Seagate Surveillance HDD Product Manual, Rev. B (Draft 2)

For detailed information about the SATA interface, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment” specification. Hot-Plug compatibility Surveillance HDD drives incorporate connectors which enable users to hot plug these drives in accordance with the SATA Revision 3.2 specification. This specification can be downloaded from www.serialata.org.
