1.7   Reliability 
(1)  Mean time between failures (MTBF) 
Conditions of 300,000 h 
Power-on time 
250H/month or less  3000H/years 
or less 
 
Operating time 
20 % or less of power-on time 
 
Environment 
5 to 55 °C/8 to 90 % 
But humidity bulb temperature 
29 °C or less 
MTBF is defined as follows: 
 
Total operation time in all fields 
MTBF= (H) 
 
number of device failure in all fields (*1) 
*1  “Disk drive defects” refers to defects that involve repair, readjustment, or 
replacement.  Disk drive defects do not include failures caused by external 
factors, such as damage caused by handling, inappropriate operating 
environments, defects in the power supply host system, or interface cable. 
(2)  Mean time to repair (MTTR) 
The mean time to repair (MTTR) is 30 minutes or less, if repaired by a specialist 
maintenance staff member. 
(3) Service life 
In situations where management and handling are correct, the disk drive requires 
no overhaul for five years when the DE surface temperature is less than 48 °C.  
When the DE surface temperature exceeds 48 °C, the disk drives requires no 
overhaul for five years or 20,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.  
Refer to item (3) in Subsection 3.2 for the measurement point of the DE surface 
temperature.  Also the operating conditions except the environment temperature 
are based on the MTBF conditions. 
(4)  Data assurance in the event of power failure 
Except for the data block being written to, the data on the disk media is assured in 
the event of any power supply abnormalities.  This does not include power supply 
abnormalities during disk media initialization (formatting) or processing of 
defects (alternative block assignment).
