LBA mode 
When addressing these drives in LBA mode, all blocks (sectors) are consecutively numbered from 0 to n–1, where n is the number of 
guaranteed sectors as defined above.

EEK TIME
Seek measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. All times are measured using drive diagnostics. The 
specifications in the table below are defined as follows:
• Track-to-track seek time is an average of all possible single-track seeks in both directions.
• Average seek time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of seeks between random tracks, less overhead.

*Measured in performance mode.
Note.
These drives are designed to consistently meet the seek times represented in this manual. Physical seeks, regardless of 
mode (such as track-to-track and average), are expected to meet the noted values. However, due to the manner in which 
these drives are formatted, benchmark tests that include command overhead or measure logical seeks may produce results 
that vary from these specifications.
