Average Life of the Hard Disk Drive 
The average life of the hard disk drive is 5 years or 20,000 hours of energized time whichever reached first. 
High-temperature Detection Feature 
Using the hard disk unit in a high-temperature environment shortens the life of the hard disk.    The hard 
disk unit has a high-temperature detection feature to detect an ambient operating temperature of 47±3
°C 
or higher using the high-temperature detection function of bus interface driver software.    Use this feature 
as a means of warning when the hard disk unit is being used at high temperature. 
When high-temperature detection is not necessary, you can disable the high-temperature detection 
function by setting with the bus interface driver software.    In that case, high-temperature detection is not 
performed. 
For details on this function, refer to the Bus Interface Driver User's Manual [PPC-CPU686(MS)-MU or 
PPC-CPU852(MS)-MU, separately priced].
