Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs)
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this 
process is the use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses this threshold curve (originated in ISO 
389-7) to discern tone audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation 
of tone ratios according to Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.

Electromagnetic immunity
When properly installed in a representative host system, the drive operates without errors or degradation in 
performance when subjected to the radio frequency (RF) environments defined in the following table:
