Note.
There is approximately a 1.5 increase in time to format a SED drive versus a non-SED drive of the same capacity.

Flaw reallocation performance impact (for flaws reallocated at format time using the 
spare sectors per sparing zone reallocation scheme.)

*Assumes no errors and no relocated logical blocks. Rate measured from the start of the first logical block transfer to or 
from the host.
5.3
Start/stop time
The drive accepts the commands listed in the SAS Interface Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has 
been applied.
If the drive receives a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port and has not received a START 
STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 30 
seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure).
If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0 before receiving a NOTIFY 
(ENABLE SPINUP) primitive, the drive waits for a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1. 
After receiving a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1, the drive waits for a NOTIFY 
(ENABLE SPINUP) primitive. After receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port, the 
drive becomes ready for normal operations within 30 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure).
If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit and IMMED bit equal to 1 and does 
not receive a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive within 5 seconds, the drive fails the START STOP UNIT 
command.
The START STOP UNIT command may be used to command the drive to stop the spindle. Stop time is 20 sec-
onds (maximum) from removal of DC power. SCSI stop time is 20 seconds. There is no power control switch 
on the drive.
