    Section 8.3. Standards The Savvio family complies with Seagate standards as noted in the appropriate sections of this manual and the Seagate SAS Interface Manual, part number 100293071. The Savvio disc drive is a UL recognized component per UL1950, CSA certified to CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 950- 95, and VDE certified to VDE 0805 and EN60950.

    Savvio drives decode track 0 location data from the servo data embedded on each surface to eliminate mechanical transducer adjustments and related reliability concerns. The drives also use a high-performance actuator assembly with a low-inertia, balanced, patented, straight arm design that provides excellent performance with minimal power dissipation.

Seagate drives also may be used at the maximum available capacity at a given block size, but the excess capacity above the guaranteed level will vary between other drive families and from generation to genera- tion, depending on how each block size actually formats out for zone frequencies and splits over servo bursts.

    Units shipped individually require additional protection as provided by the single unit shipping pack. Users planning single unit distribution should specify this option. • The Savvio 15K SAS Installation Guide, part number 100407741, is usually included with each standard OEM drive shipped, but extra copies may be ordered.

    When prefetch (read look-ahead) is enabled (enabled by DRA = 0), the drive enables prefetch of contiguous blocks from the disc when it senses that a prefetch hit will likely occur.

    Drive Self Test (DST) is a technology designed to recognize drive fault conditions that qualify the drive as a failed unit. DST validates the functionality of the drive at a system level. There are two test coverage options implemented in DST: 1. Extended test Savvio 15K SAS Product Manual, Rev. B...

    36 in (914 mm) Drives packaged in single or multipacks with a gross weight of 20 pounds (8.95 kg) or less by Seagate for general freight shipment shall withstand a drop test from 48 inches (1,070 mm) against a concrete floor or equivalent.
  • Page 40: Air Cleanliness

    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 41: Acoustics

    There will not be any discrete tones more than 10 dB above the masking noise on typical drives when mea- sured according to Seagate specification 30553-001. There will not be any tones more than 24 dB above the masking noise on any drive.

  • Page 43: Defect And Error Management

    Defect and error management Seagate continues to use innovative technologies to manage defects and errors. These technologies are designed to increase data integrity, perform drive self-maintenance, and validate proper drive operation. SCSI defect and error management involves drive internal defect/error management and SAS system error considerations (errors in communications between the initiator and the drive).
  • Page 44: Sas System Errors

    Status returned by the drive to the initiator is described in the SAS Interface Manual. Status reporting plays a role in systems error management and its use in that respect is described in sections where the various com- mands are discussed. Savvio 15K SAS Product Manual, Rev. B...

    DAR is most effective when AWRE and ARRE are enabled—this is the default setting from the Seagate factory. With AWRE and ARRE disabled DAR is unable to reallocate the failing location and will report an error sense code indicating that a write command is being attempted to a previously failing location.
  • Page 46: Idle Read After Write

    Any sectors that fail the comparison result in the invocation of a rewrite and auto-reallocation process. The process attempts to rewrite the data to the original location. If a verification of this rewrite fails, the sector is re-mapped to a spare location. Savvio 15K SAS Product Manual, Rev. B...
