2.15.1 Data loss under power interruption with write cache enabled

Drive preserves its data during all operations except in cases where power to the drive is interrupted during write
operations. This could result in either an uncorrected data error being reported, or the entire sector/track becoming
unreadable. This can be permanently recovered by rewriting to the same location on the drive. Additionally any data
present in the DRAM buffer will not be written to the disk media, additionally, the drive will not be able to return the
original data.
In order to prevent this data loss, the host should issue a standby immediate or flush cache command before a controlled
power off operation to the drive.

2.15.2 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). During any storage period the drive non-operational temperature, humidity, wet bulb,
atmospheric conditions, shock, vibration, magnetic and electrical field specifications should be followed.
