Drive Usage Condition Specifications - Hitachi DK23CA-10 - 10 GB Hard Drive Specifications

*4 : 3.9 Bels are the maximum sound power levels with A-weighted . This value is specified at product
shipment, except during startup, seek, load, unload or stop. Clicking noise of releasing magnet latch will
occur at power-on and loading operation. Also, the licking noise of locking magnet latch will occur at
normal and emergency unloading operations.
*5 :
Caution
*6: These shock specifications are defined for each axis. For non-operating rotational shock, the
specification is 15K radian/sec

3.3 Drive Usage Condition Specifications

The drive is designed for usage under the following conditions. Since reliability and product life depends on
usage conditions, please consult our sales representatives or application engineers if the drive may be
operated outside these conditions.

Data reliability is not to be used to compromise the host system data backup.
For the HDD evaluation, long term operation is not recommended. In case of
evaluation, once or more unload operation by Power off , Standby or Sleep is
recommended within twelve hours' power on time.
2
or less (2 ms, half sine wave).
POH includes Sleep and Standby modes.
The heads are unloaded during Power off, Standby, Sleep or Low Power Idle
modes. The spindle motor is stopped during Standby and Sleep modes.
: Less than 20% of POH
count.
: Within environmental specifications given in Table 3.2
: Within DC power requirement specifications given in Table 3.1 "Principal
Specifications"
: Drive frame should be grounded to system ground with four screws electrically.
Grounding noise should be less than 500mVp-p. The grounding noise
should be measured between electrical ground and system frame ground
without the drive. Grounding AC current (measuring between two of side
mounting holes) should be less than 50 mAp-p (Frequency Range: less than
20MHz). The grounding current should be measured through 50 ohm resistor.
: Mount with recommended screws and regular torque.
: Do not add Electrical Static Discharge, and Vibration and Shock to the drive.
Do not press top cover and bottom PCBA surface of the drive.
