Drive Specifications
2.9.5.2
Nonoperating shock
2TB and 4TB models
The nonoperating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in
performance when subsequently put into operation is 300 Gs based on a non-repetitive half-sine shock pulse of
2 ms in duration.

1TB model
The nonoperating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in
performance when subsequently put into operation is 350 Gs based on a non-repetitive half-sine shock pulse of
2 ms in duration.

Operating vibration
The maximum vibration levels that the drive may experience while meeting the performance standards specified
in this document are specified below.
in this document are specified below.
All vibration specifications assume that the drive is mounted securely with the input vibration applied at the drive
mounting screws. Vibration may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis. Throughput may vary if improperly mounted.

2.10 Acoustics
Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). All
measurements are consistent with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under essentially
free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.

*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

Note
For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only. The number of seeks per second is defined by the
following equation:
