www.seagate.com Introduction

1.1 About the SATA interface

The Serial ATA (SATA) interface provides several advantages over the traditional (parallel) ATA interface. The primary

advantages include:

• Easy installation and configuration with true plug-and-play connectivity. It is not necessary to set any jumpers or other

configuration options.

• Thinner and more flexible cabling for improved enclosure airflow and ease of installation.

• Scalability to higher performance levels.

In addition, SATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy software support. SATA was designed to

allow users to install a SATA host adapter and SATA disk drive in the current system and expect all of the existing

applications to work as normal.

The SATA interface connects each disk drive in a point-to-point configuration with the SATA host adapter. There is no

master/slave relationship with SATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. If two drives are attached on one SATA host

adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they were both “masters” on two separate ports. This

essentially means both drives behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.

The SATA host adapter and drive share the function of emulating parallel ATA device behavior to provide backward

compatibility with existing host systems and software. The Command and Control Block registers, PIO and DMA data

transfers, resets, and interrupts are all emulated.

The SATA host adapter contains a set of registers that shadow the contents of the traditional device registers, referred to as

the Shadow Register Block. All SATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For additional information about how SATA

emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA Revision 3.0”. The specification can be

downloaded from www.sata-io.org.

Note

The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two

devices on separate SATA ports are represented to host software as a Device 0 (master) and Device 1

(slave) accessed at the same set of host bus addresses. A host adapter that emulates a master/slave

environment manages two sets of shadow registers. This is not a typical SATA environment.

2.7 Start/stop times

Time-to-ready may be longer than normal if the drive power is removed without going through normal OS powerdown

procedures.

2.8 Power specifications

The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a native SATA power connector. Refer to Figure 1 on page 23.

2.8.1 Power consumption

Power requirements for the drives are listed in Table 3, Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6. 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

Spinup power is measured from the time of power-on to the time that the drive spindle reaches operating speed.

• Read/write power and current

Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on a 16-sector write followed by a 32-ms delay, then a

16-sector read followed by a 32-ms delay.

• Operating power and current

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

Idle mode power is measured with the drive up to speed, with servo electronics active and with the heads in a random

track location.

•Standby mode

During Standby mode, the drive accepts commands, but the drive is not spinning, and the servo and read/write elec-

tronics are in power-down mode.

2.8.2 Conducted noise

Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 80-ohm resistive load on the +12 volt

line or an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5 volt line.

• Using 12-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 120 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected

noise at up to 10MHz.

• Using 5-volt power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 100 mV peak-to-peak square-wave injected

noise at up to 10MHz.

2.8.3 Voltage tolerance

Voltage tolerance (including noise):

•5V ±5%

• 12V +10% / -7.5%

2.8.4 Power-management modes

The drive provides programmable power management to provide greater energy efficiency. In most systems, users can

control power management through the system setup program. The drive features the following power-management

modes:

•Active mode

The drive is in Active mode during the read/write and seek operations.

• Idle mode

The buffer remains enabled, and the drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time disk access is

necessary.

•Standby mode

The drive enters Standby mode when the host sends a Standby Immediate command. If the host has set the standby

timer, the drive can also enter Standby mode automatically after the drive has been inactive for a specifiable length of

time. The standby timer delay is established using a Standby or Idle command. In Standby mode, the drive buffer is

enabled, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode

any time disk access is necessary.

•Sleep mode

The drive enters Sleep mode after receiving a Sleep command from the host. In Sleep mode, the drive buffer is dis-

abled, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive leaves Sleep mode after it receives a Hard Reset or Soft

Reset from the host. After receiving a reset, the drive exits Sleep mode and enters Standby mode with all current trans-

lation parameters intact.

• Idle and Standby timers

Each time the drive performs an Active function (read, write or seek), the standby timer is reinitialized and begins

counting down from its specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer reaches zero before any drive activity is

required, the drive makes a transition to Standby mode. In both Idle and Standby mode, the drive accepts all com-

mands and returns to Active mode when disk access is necessary.

Note Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write current.

2.9.5 Shock

All shock specifications assume that the drive is mounted securely with the input shock applied at the drive mounting

screws. Shock may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis.

2.9.5.1 Operating shock

These drives comply with the performance levels specified in this document when subjected to a maximum operating

shock of 80 Gs based on half-sine shock pulses of 2 ms during read operations. Shocks should not be repeated more than

two times per second.

2.9.5.2 Non-operating shock

3TB and 2TB models

The non-operating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in

performance when subsequently put into operation is 300 Gs based on a non-repetitive half-sine shock pulse of 2 ms

duration.

1TB, 500GB, 320GB and 250GB models

The non-operating shock level that the drive can experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in

performance when subsequently put into operation is 350 Gs based on a non-repetitive half-sine shock pulse of 2-ms

duration.

2.9.5.3 Operating vibration

The maximum vibration levels that the drive may experience while meeting the performance standards specified in this

document are specified below.

All vibration specifications assume that the drive is mounted securely with the input vibration applied at the drive

mounting screws. Vibration may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis. Throughput may vary if improperly mounted.

2.9.6 Non-operating vibration

The maximum non-operating vibration levels that the drive may experience without incurring physical damage or

degradation in performance when subsequently put into operation are specified below.

2.10 Acoustics

Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). All measurements are

consistent with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under essentially free-field conditions over a

reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.

*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.

2.10.1 Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs)

Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process is the

use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses this threshold curve (originated in ISO 389-7) to discern tone

audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios according to

Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.

2.11 Electromagnetic immunity

When properly installed in a representative host system, the drive operates without errors or degradation in performance

when subjected to the radio frequency (RF) environments defined in Table 8.

Note

For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only.

2.15 Corrosive environment

Seagate electronic drive components pass accelerated corrosion testing equivalent to 10 years exposure to light industrial

environments containing sulfurous gases, chlorine and nitric oxide, classes G and H per ASTM B845. However, this

accelerated testing cannot duplicate every potential application environment. Users should use caution exposing any

electronic components to uncontrolled chemical pollutants and corrosive chemicals as electronic drive component

reliability can be affected by the installation environment. The silver, copper, nickel and gold films used in Seagate

products are especially sensitive to the presence of sulfide, chloride, and nitrate contaminants. Sulfur is found to be the

most damaging. In addition, electronic components should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the

printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%. Materials used in

cabinet fabrication, such as vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corrosive compounds should be minimized or eliminated.

The useful life of any electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free

alternatives.

3.0 Configuring and Mounting the Drive

This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.

3.1 Handling and static-discharge precautions

After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD)

hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions:

Caution

• Before handling the drive, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground oneself frequently by touching the metal chassis of

a computer that is plugged into a grounded outlet. Wear a grounded wrist strap throughout the entire installation

procedure.

• Handle the drive by its edges or frame only.

• The drive is extremely fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down on the drive top cover.

• Always rest the drive on a padded, antistatic surface until mounting it in the computer.

• Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board.

• Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them with additional labels. Removal voids the warranty.

Some factory-installed labels contain information needed to service the drive. Other labels are used to seal out dirt and

contamination.

3.2 Configuring the drive

Each drive on the SATA interface connects point-to-point with the SATA host adapter. There is no master/slave relationship

because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point relationship. If two drives are attached on one SATA host

adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they were both “masters” on two separate ports. Both drives

behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.

SATA drives are designed for easy installation. It is usually not necessary to set any jumpers on the drive for proper

operation; however, if users connect the drive and receive a “drive not detected” error, the SATA-equipped motherboard or

host adapter may use a chipset that does not support SATA speed autonegotiation.

3.3 SATA cables and connectors

The SATA interface cable consists of four conductors in two differential pairs, plus three ground connections. The cable size

may be 30 to 26 AWG with a maximum length of one meter (39.37 inches). See Table 10 for connector pin definitions.

Either end of the SATA signal cable can be attached to the drive or host.

For direct backplane connection, the drive connectors are inserted directly into the host receptacle. The drive and the host

receptacle incorporate features that enable the direct connection to be hot pluggable and blind mateable.

For installations which require cables, users can connect the drive as illustrated in Figure 1.

Figure 1 Attaching SATA cabling

Each cable is keyed to ensure correct orientation. Desktop HDD drives support latching SATA connectors.

3.4 Drive mounting

Users can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom-

mounting holes. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting

precautions when mounting the drive:

• Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 inches (0.76mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.

• Use only 6-32 UNC mounting screws.

• The screws should be inserted no more than 0.120 inch (3.05mm) into the bottom or side mounting holes.

• Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 inch-lb).

www.seagate.com About (SED) Self-Encrypting Drives

4.0 About (SED) Self-Encrypting Drives

Self-encrypting drives (SEDs) offer encryption and security services for the protection of stored data, commonly known as

"data at rest". These drives are compliant with the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Opal Storage Specifications as detailed

in the following:

• TCG Storage Architecture Core Specification, Version 2.0 (see www.trustedcomputinggroup.org)

• TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class Opal Specification, Version 2.0 (see www.trustedcomputinggroup.org)

In case of conflict between this document and any referenced document, this document takes precedence.

The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) is a standards organization sponsored and operated by companies in the computer,

storage and digital communications industry. Seagate's SED models comply with the standards published by the TCG.

To use the security features in the drive, the host must be capable of constructing and issuing the following two SATA

commands:

•Trusted Send

•Trusted Receive

These commands are used to convey the TCG protocol to and from the drive in their command payloads. Seagate Secure SEDs also

support TCG Single User Mode, which can be disabled.

4.1 Data Encryption

Encrypting drives use one inline encryption engine within each drive employing AES-256 algorithms in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC)

mode to encrypt all data prior to being written on the media and to decrypt all data as it is read from the media. The encryption engine

is always in operation and cannot be disabled. The 32-byte Data Encryption Key (DEK) is a random number which is generated by the

drive, never leaves the drive, and is inaccessible to the host system. The DEK is itself encrypted when it is stored on the media and when

in volatile temporary storage (DRAM), which is external to the encryption engine. A unique data encryption key is used for each of the

drive's possible16 data bands (see Section 4.5 Data Bands).

4.2 Controlled Access

The drive has two security providers (SPs) called the "Admin SP" and the "Locking SP." These act as gatekeepers to the drive security

services. Security-related commands will not be accepted unless the user provides the correct credentials to prove that they are

authorized to perform the command.

4.2.1 Admin SP

The Admin SP allows the drive's owner to enable or disable firmware download operations (see Section 4.4 Drive Locking). Access to

the Admin SP is available using the SID (Secure ID) password.

4.2.2 Locking SP

The Locking SP controls read/write access to the media and the cryptographic erase feature. Access to the Locking SP is available using

the Admin or User passwords.

4.2.3 Default password

When the drive is shipped from the factory, all passwords are set to the value of MSID. This 32-byte random value can only be read by the

host electronically over the interface. After receipt of the drive, it is the responsibility of the owner to use the default MSID password as

the authority to change all other passwords to unique owner-specified values.

4.2.4 ATA Enhanced Security

The drive can utilize the system's BIOS through the ATA Security API for cases that do not require password management and additional

security policies.

Furthermore, the drive's ATA Security Erase Unit command shall support both Normal and Enhanced Erase modes with the following

modifications/additions:

Normal Erase: Normal erase feature shall be performed by changing the Data Encryption Key (DEK) of the drive, followed by an

overwrite operation that repeatedly writes a single sector containing random data to the entire drive. This write operation bypasses the

media encryption. On reading back the overwritten sectors, the host will receive a decrypted version, using the new DEK of the random

data sector (the returned data will not match what was written).

Enhanced Erase: Enhanced erase shall be performed by changing the Data Encryption Key of the drive.

4.3 Random Number Generator (RNG)

The drive has a 32-byte hardware RNG that it is uses to derive encryption keys or, if requested to do so, to provide random numbers to

the host for system use, including using these numbers as Authentication Keys (passwords) for the drive's Admin and Locking SPs.

Seagate Desktop HDD Product Manual, Rev. V 28

www.seagate.com About (SED) Self-Encrypting Drives

4.4 Drive Locking

In addition to changing the passwords, as described in Section 4.2.3 Default password, the owner should also set the data access

controls for the individual bands.

The variable "LockOnReset" should be set to "PowerCycle" to ensure that the data bands will be locked if power is lost. In addition

"ReadLockEnabled" and "WriteLockEnabled" must be set to true in the locking table in order for the bands "LockOnReset" setting of

"PowerCycle" to actually lock access to the band when a "PowerCycle" event occurs. This scenario occurs if the drive is removed from its

cabinet. The drive will not honor any data read or write requests until the bands have been unlocked. This prevents the user data from

being accessed without the appropriate credentials when the drive has been removed from its cabinet and installed in another system.

4.5 Data Bands

When shipped from the factory, the drive is configured with a single data band called Band 0 (also known as the Global Data Band)

which comprises LBA 0 through LBA max. The host may allocate additional bands (Band1 to Band15) by specifying a start LBA and an

LBA range. The real estate for this band is taken from the Global Band.

Data bands cannot overlap but they can be sequential with one band ending at LBA (x) and the next beginning at LBA (x+1).

Each data band has its own drive-generated encryption key. The host may change the Encryption Key (see Section 4.6

Cryptographic Erase) or the password when required.

4.6 Cryptographic Erase

A valuable feature of SEDs is the ability to perform a cryptographic erase. This involves the host telling the drive to change the data

encryption key for a particular band. Once changed, the data is no longer recoverable since it was written with one key and will be read

using a different key. Since the drive overwrites the old key with the new one, and keeps no history of key the older key, the user data

can never be recovered. This is done in a matter of seconds and is very useful if the drive is to be scrapped or repurposed.

4.7 Authenticated Firmware Download

In addition to providing a locking mechanism to prevent unwanted firmware download attempts, the drive also only accepts download

files which have been cryptographically signed by the appropriate Seagate Design Center.

Three conditions must be met before the drive will allow the download operation:

1. The download must be an SED file. A standard drive (non-SED) file will be rejected.

2. The download file must be signed and authenticated.

3. As with a non-SED drive, the download file must pass the acceptance criteria for the drive. For example it must be applicable to the

correct drive model, and have compatible revision and customer status.

4.8 Power Requirements

The standard drive models and the SED drive models have identical hardware, however the security and encryption portion of the drive

controller ASIC is enabled and functional in the SED models. This represents a small additional drain on the 5V supply of about

30mA and a commensurate increase of about 150mW in power consumption. There is no additional drain on the 12V supply. See the

tables in Section 2.8 Power specifications for power requirements on the standard (non-SED) drive models.

4.9 Supported Commands

The SED models support the following two commands in addition to the commands supported by the standard (non-SED) models as

listed in Table 11:

•Trusted Send

•Trusted Receive

4.10 RevertSP

SED models will support the RevertSP feature which erases all data in all bands on the device and returns the contents of all SPs (Security

Providers) on the device to their original factory state. In order to execute the RevertSP method the unique PSID (Physical Secure ID)

printed on the drive label must be provided. PSID is not electronically accessible and can only be manually read from the drive label or

scanned in via the 2D barcode.

Seagate Desktop HDD Product Manual, Rev. V 29

5.3.1 Identify Device command

The Identify Device command (command code ECH) transfers information about the drive to the host following power up.

The data is organized as a single 512-byte block of data, whose contents are shown in on page 30. All reserved bits or

words should be set to zero. Parameters listed with an “x” are drive-specific or vary with the state of the drive.

The following commands contain drive-specific features that may not be included in the SATA specification.

5.3.2 Set Features command

This command controls the implementation of various features that the drive supports. When the drive receives this

command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the

register does not represent a feature that the drive supports, the command is aborted. Power-on default has the read look-

ahead and write caching features enabled. The acceptable values for the Features register are defined as follows:

Table 13 Set Features command

02HEnable write cache (default).

03HSet transfer mode (based on value in Sector Count register).

Sector Count register values:

00HSet PIO mode to default (PIO mode 2).

01HSet PIO mode to default and disable IORDY (PIO mode 2).

5.3.3 S.M.A.R.T. commands

S.M.A.R.T. provides near-term failure prediction for disk drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive monitors

predetermined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If self-monitoring determines that a failure is

likely, S.M.A.R.T. makes a status report available to the host. Not all failures are predictable. S.M.A.R.T. predictability is

limited to the attributes the drive can monitor. For more information on S.M.A.R.T. commands and implementation, see the

Draft ATA-5 Standard.

SeaTools diagnostic software activates a built-in drive self-test (DST S.M.A.R.T. command for D4H) that eliminates

unnecessary drive returns. The diagnostic software ships with all new drives and is also available at:

http://seatools.seagate.com.

This drive is shipped with S.M.A.R.T. features disabled. Users must have a recent BIOS or software package that supports

S.M.A.R.T. to enable this feature. The table below shows the S.M.A.R.T. command codes that the drive uses.

Table 14 S.M.A.R.T. commands

Code in features register S.M.A.R.T. command

D0HS.M.A.R.T. Read Data

D2HS.M.A.R.T. Enable/Disable Attribute Autosave

D3HS.M.A.R.T. Save Attribute Values

D4HS.M.A.R.T. Execute Off-line Immediate (runs DST)

D5HS.M.A.R.T. Read Log Sector

D6HS.M.A.R.T. Write Log Sector

D8HS.M.A.R.T. Enable Operations

D9HS.M.A.R.T. Disable Operations

DAHS.M.A.R.T. Return Status

Note If an appropriate code is not written to the Features Register, the

command is aborted and 0x04 (abort) is written to the Error register.
