1.4 Physical characteristics
1.5 Seek time
Seek measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient
temperature. All times are measured using drive diagnostics. The spec-
ifications in the table below are defined as follows:
•Track-to-track seek time is an average of all possible single-track
seeks in both directions.
•Averageseektime is atruestatisticalrandomaverage ofatleast5,000
measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.
Note. These drives are designed to consistently meet the seek times rep-
resentedin this manual.Physicalseeks,regardless ofmode(suchas
track-to-trackandaverage),areexpectedtomeetorexceedthenoted
values.However, duetothemannerinwhichthesedrivesareformat-
ted, benchmark tests that include command overhead or measure

1.6 Start/stop times
1.7 Power specifications
The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a four-pin standard
drive power connector.
1.7.1 Power consumption
Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 9.
Typical power measurements are based on an average of drives tested,
under nominal conditions, using 5.0V and 12.0V input voltage at 25°C
ambient temperature.
•Spinup power
Spinup power is measured from the time of power-on to the time that
the drive spindle reaches operating speed.
•Seek mode
During seek mode, the read/write actuator arm moves toward a
specific position on the disc surface and does not execute a read or
write operation. Servo electronics are active. Seek mode power rep-
resents the worst-case power consumption, using only random seeks
with read or write latency time. This mode is not typical and is provided
for worst-case information.
•Read/write power and current
Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on a
16-sector write followed by a 32-msec delay, then a 16-sector read
followed by a 32-msec delay.
•Operating power and current
Operating power is measured using 40 percent random seeks, 40
percent read/write mode (1 write for each 10 reads) and 20 percent
drive idle mode.
•Idle mode power
Idle mode power is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo
electronics active and with the heads in a random track location.
Power-on to Ready (sec) 10 (max)
Standby to Ready (sec) 10 (max)
Ready to spindle stop (sec) 10 (max)

Barracuda ATA IV Family Product Manual, Rev. B 9
•Standby mode
During Standby mode, the drive accepts commands, but the drive is
not spinning, and the servo and read/write electronics are in power-
down mode.
*During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T.
specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels
.

1.7.2 Conducted noise
Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across
an equivalent 80-ohm resistive load on the +12 volt line or an equivalent
15-ohm resistive load on the +5 volt line.
•Using 12-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum
of 120 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
•Using 5-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum
of 100 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected noise at up to 10 MHz.
Note. Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal volt-
age by the typical RMS read/write current.
1.7.3 Voltage tolerance
Voltage tolerance (including noise):
1.7.4 Power-management modes
The drive provides programmable power management to provide great-
er energy efficiency. In most systems, you can control power manage-
mentthroughthe systemsetupprogram. The drivefeaturesthefollowing
power-management modes:
•Active mode
The drive is in Active mode during the read/write and seek operations.
•Idle mode
The buffer remains enabled, and the drive accepts all commands and
returns to Active mode any time disc access is necessary.

12V ± 10%
Power modes Heads Spindle Buffer
Active Tracking Rotating Enabled
Idle Tracking Rotating Enabled
Standby Parked Stopped Enabled
Sleep Parked Stopped Disabled

Barracuda ATA IV Family Product Manual, Rev. B 11
•Standby mode
The drive enters Standby mode when the host sends a Standby
Immediate command. If the host has set the standby timer, the drive
can also enter Standby mode automatically after the drive has been
inactive for a specifiable length of time. The standby timer delay is
established using a Standby or Idle command. In Standby mode, the
drive buffer is enabled, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest.
The drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time
disc access is necessary.
•Sleep mode
The drive enters Sleep mode after receiving a Sleep command from
the host. In Sleep mode, the drive buffer is disabled, the heads are
parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive leaves Sleep mode after
it receives a Hard Reset or Soft Reset from the host. After receiving a
reset, the drive exits Sleep mode and enters Standby mode with all
current translation parameters intact.
•Idle and Standby timers
Each time the drive performs an Active function (read, write or seek),
the standby timer is reinitialized and begins counting down from its
specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer reaches zero before
any drive activity is required, the drive makes a transition to Standby
mode. Inboth IdleandStandby mode,the driveaccepts allcommands
and returns to Active mode when disc access is necessary.
1.8 Environmental specifications
1.8.1 Ambient temperature
Ambient temperature is defined as the temperature of the environment
immediatelysurroundingthedrive.Actualdrivecasetemperatureshould

ommended measurement locations are shown in Figure 3 on page 23.
