The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a four-pin standard drive power connector.

Power requirements for the drives are listed in the tables beginning on page 15. 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 is measured from the time of power-on to the time that the drive spindle reaches operating speed.

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 represents 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 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 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 is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo electronics active and with the heads in
a random track location.

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.
