Access time = controller overhead + average seek time.
Access to data = controller overhead + average seek time + latency time.

Start/stop time
After DC power at nominal voltage has been applied, the drive becomes ready within 20 seconds if the Motor
Start Option is disabled (i.e. the motor starts as soon as the power has been applied). If a recoverable error
condition is detected during the start sequence, the drive executes a recovery procedure which may cause the
time to become ready to exceed 20 seconds. During spin up to ready time the drive responds to some com-
mands over the SCSI interface in less than 3 seconds after application of power. Stop time is less than 15 sec-
onds from removal of DC power.

If the Motor Start Option is enabled, the internal controller accepts the commands listed in the
SCSI Interface
Product Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has been applied. After the Motor Start Command has
been received the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 10 seconds typically (excluding an error
recovery procedure). The Motor Start Command can also be used to command the drive to stop the spindle

There is no power control switch on the drive.

Prefetch/multi-segmented cache control
The drive provides prefetch (read look-ahead) and multi-segmented cache control algorithms that in many
cases can enhance system performance. “Cache” as used herein refers to the drive buffer storage space when
it is used in cache operations. To select prefetch and cache features the host sends the Mode Select command
with the proper values in the applicable bytes in Mode Page 08h (see

enabled and disabled independently via the Mode Select command. However, in actual operation the prefetch
feature overlaps cache operation somewhat as is noted in Section 4.5.1 and 4.5.2.
