General performance characteristics
Minimum sector interleave
Data buffer to/from disk media (one 512-byte logical block)*
Sustained transfer rate
SAS Interface maximum instantaneous transfer rate
Logical block sizes
512 (default), 520, 524 or 528.
Read/write consecutive sectors on a track
Flaw reallocation performance impact (for flaws reallocated at format time using the
spare sectors per sparing zone reallocation scheme.)
Average rotational latency
*Assumes no errors and no relocated logical blocks. Rate measured from the start of the first logical block transfer to or
from the host.

STOP TIME
The drive accepts the commands listed in the SAS Interface Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has been applied.
If the drive receives a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port and has not received a START STOP UNIT
command with the START bit equal to 0, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 20 seconds (excluding the
error recovery procedure).
If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0 before receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE
SPINUP) primitive, the drive waits for a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1. After receiving a
START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1, the drive waits for a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive.
After receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port, the drive becomes ready for normal operations
within 20 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure).
If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit and IMMED bit equal to 1 and does not receive a
NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive within 5 seconds, the drive fails the START STOP UNIT command.
The START STOP UNIT command may be used to command the drive to stop the spindle. Stop time is 20 seconds
(maximum) from removal of DC power. SCSI stop time is 20 seconds. There is no power control switch on the drive.
