3.3.4 SATA interface cable connection
The cable that connects the disk drive to the host system must be compliant with
the Serial ATA 1.0a specification.
3.3.5 Note about SATA interface cable connection
Take note of the following precaution about plugging a SATA interface cable into
the SATA interface connector of the disk drive and plugging the connector into a
host receptacle:
•
When plugging together the disk drive SATA interface connector and the
host receptacle or SATA interface cable connector, do not apply more than
10 kgf of force in the connection direction once they are snugly and securely
in position.
Note: Hot Plug
These drives support the serial ATA interface and Hot Plug (hot-pluggable).
However, the disk drive installation and removal procedures and notes on safety
precautions with regard to hot-plugging vary depending on the specific
requirements and environment-related conditions of the system to which the drive
is connected by hot-plugging.
When using the drive under general conditions of use (i.e., without hot-plugging),
observe the important alert messages and notes on safety precautions given in this
manual.
For the conditions of use and notes on using the drive with a system that supports
hot-plugging, contact our sales representative at one of our offices.
