2.1  
About the Serial ATA interface  
The Serial ATA 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 jump-  
ers or other configuration options.  
• Thinner and more flexible cabling for improved enclosure airflow and ease of installation.  
• Scalability to higher performance levels.  
In addition, Serial ATA makes the transition from parallel ATA easy by providing legacy software support. Serial  
ATA was designed to allow you to install a Serial ATA host adapter and Serial ATA disc drive in your current  
system and expect all of your existing applications to work as normal.  
The Serial ATA interface connects each disc drive in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host  
adapter. There is no master/slave relationship with Serial ATA devices like there is with parallel ATA. If two  
drives are attached on one Serial ATA 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.  
Note. The host adapter may, optionally, emulate a master/slave environment to host software where two  
devices on separate Serial ATA 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 Serial ATA  
environment.  
The Serial ATA 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 Serial ATA host adapter contains a set of registers that shadow the contents of the traditional device regis-  
ters, referred to as the Shadow Register Block. All Serial ATA devices behave like Device 0 devices. For addi-  
tional information about how Serial ATA emulates parallel ATA, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized  
AT Attachment” specification. The specification can be downloaded from www.serialata.org.

Seek 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.

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.

Power specifications  
The drive receives DC power (+5V or +12V) through a native SATA power connector. See Figure 4 on page 23.  
3.8.1 Power consumption  
Power requirements for the drives are listed in the table on page 9. 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.  
• Seek mode  
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 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 32ms 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 electronics are in power-down mode.

3.8.2 Conducted noise  
Input noise ripple is measured at the host system power supply across an equivalent 80-ohm resistive load on  
the +12 V line or an equivalent 15-ohm resistive load on the +5V line.  
• Using 12V power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 120mV peak-to-peak square-wave  
injected noise at up to 10MHz.  
• Using 5V power, the drive is expected to operate with a maximum of 100mV peak-to-peak square-wave  
injected noise at up to 10MHz.  
Note. Equivalent resistance is calculated by dividing the nominal voltage by the typical RMS read/write  
current.

Power-management modes  
The drive provides programmable power management to provide greater energy efficiency. In most systems,  
you 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 disc  
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 disc access is necessary.  
• Sleep mode  
The drive enters Sleep mode after receiving a Sleep command from the host. In Sleep mode, the drive buf-  
fer is disabled, 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 translation 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 commands and returns to Active mode when disc access is necessary.

Extended Power Conditions - PowerChoiceTM  
Utilizing the load/unload architecture a programmable power management interface is provided to tailor sys-  
tems for reduced power consumption and performance requirements.  
The table below lists the supported power conditions available in PowerChoice. Power conditions are ordered  
from highest power consumption (and shortest recovery time) to lowest power consumption (and longest  
recovery time) as follows: Idle_a power >= Idle_b power >= Idle_c power >= Standby_z power. The further you  
go down in the table, the more power savings is actualized. For example, Idle_b results in greater power sav-  
ings than the Idle_a power condition. Standby results in the greatest power savings.

Each power condition has a set of current, saved and default settings. Default settings are not modifiable.  
Default and saved settings persist across power-on resets. The current settings do not persist across power-on  
resets. At the time of manufacture, the default, saved and current settings are in the Power Conditions log  
match.  
PowerChoice is invoked using one of two methods  
• Automatic power transitions which are triggered by expiration of individual power condition timers. These  
timer values may be customized and enabled using the Extended Power Conditions (EPC) feature set using  
the standardized Set Features command interface.  
• Immediate host commanded power transitions may be initiated using an EPC Set Features "Go to Power  
Condition" subcommand to enter any supported power condition. Legacy power commands Standby Imme-  
diate and Idle Immediate also provide a method to directly transition the drive into supported power condi-  
tions.  
PowerChoice exits power saving states under the following conditions  
• Any command which requires the drive to enter the PM0: Active state (media access)  
• Power on reset  
PowerChoice provides the following reporting methods for tracking purposes  
Check Power Mode Command  
• Reports the current power state of the drive  
Identify Device Command  
• EPC Feature set supported flag  
• EPC Feature enabled flag is set if at least one Idle power condition timer is enabled  
Power Condition Log reports the following for each power condition  
• Nominal recovery time from the power condition to active  
• If the power condition is Supported, Changeable, and Savable  
• Default enabled state, and timer value  
• Saved enabled state, and timer value  
• Current enabled state, and timer value

Environmental limits  
Temperature and humidity values experienced by the drive must be such that condensation does not occur on  
any drive part. Altitude and atmospheric pressure specifications are referenced to a standard day at 58.7°F  
(14.8°C). Maximum wet bulb temperature is 82°F (28°C).  
3.9.1  
Temperature  
a. Operating  
The drive meets the operating specifications over a 41°F to 140°F (5°C to 60°C) drive case temperature  
range with a maximum temperature gradient of 36°F (20°C) per hour.  
The maximum allowable drive case temperature is 60°C. See Figure 3 for HDA case temperature  
measurement location  
The MTBF specification for the drive assumes the operating environment is designed to maintain nominal  
case temperature. The rated MTBF is based upon a sustained case temperature of 104°F (40°C).  
Occasional excursions in operating temperature between the rated MTBF temperature and the maximum  
drive operating case temperature may occur without impact to the rated MTBF temperature. However,  
continual or sustained operation at case temperatures beyond the rated MTBF temperature will degrade the  
drive MTBF and reduce product reliability.  
Air flow may be required to achieve consistent nominal case temperature values (see Section 4.4). To  
confirm that the required cooling is provided for the electronics and HDA, place the drive in its final  
mechanical configuration, and perform random write/read operations. After the temperatures stabilize,  
measure the case temperature of the drive.  
b. Non-operating  
–40° to 158°F (–40° to 70°C) package ambient with a maximum gradient of 36°F (20°C) per hour. This  
specification assumes that the drive is packaged in the shipping container designed by Seagate for use with  
drive.

Acoustics  
Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). All mea-  
surements 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.  
Note. For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only. The number of seeks per second is defined  
by the following equation:  
(Number of seeks per second = 0.4 / (average latency + average access time)

*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.  
3.11  
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.

Reliability  
3.13.1  
Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) and Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)  
The product shall achieve an Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) of 0.73% (MTBF of 1.2 million hours) when oper-  
ated nominal power and typical case temperatures of 40°C. Operation at temperatures outside the specifica-  
tions in Section 3.9 may increase the product AFR (decrease MTBF). AFR and MTBF are population statistics  
that are not relevant to individual units.  
AFR and MTBF specifications are based on the following assumptions for business critical storage system  
environments:  
• 8760 power-on-hours per year.  
• Operations at nominal voltages.  
• Temperatures outside the specifications in Section 3.9 may reduce thee product reliability.  
• Normal I/O duty cycle for enterprise nearline applications. Operation at excessive I/O duty cycle may  
degrade product reliability.  
The enterprise application nearline environment of power-on-hours, temperature, and I/O duty cycle affect the  
product AFR and MTBF.

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, chlo-  
ride, 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 vulca-  
nized 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.

Beginning on the date of shipment to the customer and continuing for the period specified in your purchase  
contract, Seagate warrants that each product (including components and subassemblies) that fails to function  
properly under normal use due to defect in materials or workmanship or due to nonconformance to the applica-  
ble specifications will be repaired or replaced, at Seagate’s option and at no charge to the customer, if returned  
by customer at customer’s expense to Seagate’s designated facility in accordance with Seagate’s warranty  
procedure. Seagate will pay for transporting the repair or replacement item to the customer. For more detailed  
warranty information, refer to the standard terms and conditions of purchase for Seagate products on your pur-  
chase documentation.  
The remaining warranty for a particular drive can be determined by calling Seagate Customer Service at 1-  
800-468-3472. You can also determine remaining warranty using the Seagate web site (www.seagate.com).  
The drive serial number is required to determine remaining warranty information.  
Shipping  
When transporting or shipping a drive, use only a Seagate-approved container. Keep your original box. Sea-  
gate approved containers are easily identified by the Seagate Approved Package label. Shipping a drive in a  
non-approved container voids the drive warranty.  
Seagate repair centers may refuse receipt of components improperly packaged or obviously damaged in tran-  
sit. Contact your authorized Seagate distributor to purchase additional boxes. Seagate recommends shipping  
by an air-ride carrier experienced in handling computer equipment.  
Storage  
The maximum recommended storage period for the drive in a non-operational environment is 90 days. Drives  
should be stored in the original unopened Seagate shipping packaging whenever possible. Once the drive is  
removed from the Seagate original packaging the recommended maximum period between drive operation  
cycles is 30 days. During any storage period the drive non-operational temperature, humidity, wet bulb, atmo-  
spheric conditions, shock, vibration, magnetic and electrical field specifications should be followed.  
Product repair and return information  
Seagate customer service centers are the only facilities authorized to service Seagate drives. Seagate does  
not sanction any third-party repair facilities. Any unauthorized repair or tampering with the factory seal voids  
the warranty.

Configuring and mounting the drive  
This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.  
4.1  
Handling and static-discharge precautions  
After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic dis-  
charge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions:  
Caution:  
• Before handling the drive, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground yourself 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 you mount 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.

4.2  
Configuring the drive  
Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects point-to-point with the Serial ATA 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 Serial ATA 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.  
4.3  
Serial ATA cables and connectors  
The Serial ATA interface cable consists of four conductors in two differential pairs, plus three ground connec-  
tions. The cable size may be 30 to 26 AWG with a maximum length of one meter (39.37 in). See Table 5 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, you can connect the drive as illustrated in Figure 4.

Each cable is keyed to ensure correct orientation. Constellation ES.2 Serial ATA drives support latching SATA  
connectors.  
4.4  
Drive mounting  
You can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom-  
mounting holes. See Figure 5 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when  
mounting the drive:  
• Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (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 0.150 in (3.81mm) into the bottom or side mounting holes.  
• Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 in-lb).  
• Do not cover breather hole on top cover.

About FIPS  
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2, FIPS PUB 140-2, is a U.S. govern-  
ment computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. It is titled “Security Requirements for  
Cryptographic Modules”. The initial publication was on May 25, 2001 and was last updated December 3, 2002.  
Purpose  
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) issued the FIPS 140 Publication Series to coordi-  
nate the requirements and standards for cryptography modules that include both hardware and software com-  
ponents.  
Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 2 Certification requires drives to go through gov-  
ernment agencies certifications to add requirements for physical tamper-evidence and role-based authentica-  
tion.  
Level 2 security  
Level 2 improves upon the physical security mechanisms of a Level 1 (lowest level of security) cryptographic  
module by requiring features that show evidence of tampering, including tamper-evident coatings or seals that  
must be broken to attain physical access to the plaintext cryptographic keys and critical security parameters  
(CSPs) within the module, or pick-resistant locks on covers or doors to protect against unauthorized physical  
access.

About self-encrypting drives  
Self-encrypting drives (SEDs) offer encryption and security services for the protection of stored data, com-  
monly known as “protection of data at rest.” These drives are compliant with the Trusted Computing Group  
(TCG) Enterprise Storage Specifications as detailed in Section 3.17.  
The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) is an organization sponsored and operated by companies in the com-  
puter, storage and digital communications industry. Seagate’s SED models comply with the standards pub-  
lished by the TCG.  
To use the security features in the drive, the host must be capable of constructing and issuing the following two  
commands:  
• Security Protocol Out  
• Security Protocol In  
These commands are used to convey the TCG protocol to and from the drive in their command payloads.  
6.1  
Data encryption  
Encrypting drives use one inline encryption engine for each port, employing AES-128 data encryption 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 engines are always in operation, cannot be disabled, and do not detract  
in any way from the performance of the drive.  
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 it is in volatile temporary storage (DRAM) external to the encryption engine. A unique data encryption  
key is used for each of the drive's possible16 data bands (see Section 6.5).  
6.2  
Controlled access  
The drive has two security partitions (SPs) called the "Admin SP" and the "Locking SP." These act as gate-  
keepers to the drive security services. Security-related commands will not be accepted unless they also supply  
the correct credentials to prove the requester is authorized to perform the command.  
6.2.1  
Admin SP  
The Admin SP allows the drive's owner to enable or disable firmware download operations (see Section 6.4).  
Access to the Admin SP is available using the SID (Secure ID) password or the MSID (Makers Secure ID)  
password.  
26  
Constellation ES.2 Serial ATA Product Manual, Rev. D  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
                                                     
6.2.2  
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 BandMasterX or EraseMaster passwords. Since the drive owner can define  
up to 16 data bands on the drive, each data band has its own password called BandMasterX where X is the  
number of the data band (0 through 15).  
6.2.3  
Default password  
When the drive is shipped from the factory, all passwords are set to the value of MSID. This 32-byte random  
value is printed on the drive label and it can be read by the host electronically over the I/O. 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.  
6.3  
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 pro-  
vide random numbers to the host for system use, including using these numbers as Authentication Keys (pass-  
words) for the drive’s Admin and Locking SPs.  
6.4  
Drive locking  
In addition to changing the passwords, as described in Section 6.2.3, 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. 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.  
When the drive is shipped from the factory, the firmware download port is unlocked.  
6.5  
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 Band1 by specifying a  
start LBA and an LBA range. The real estate for this band is taken from the Global Band. An additional 14 Data  
Bands may be defined in a similar way (Band2 through Band15) but before these bands can be allocated LBA  
space, they must first be individually enabled using the EraseMaster password.  
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 and its own user-supplied password. The host may  
change the Encryption Key (see Section 6.6) or the password when required. The bands should be aligned to  
4K LBA boundaries.  
6.6  
Cryptographic erase  
A significant 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 changes, the user data can never be recovered. This is tanta-  
mount to an instantaneous data erase and is very useful if the drive is to be scrapped or redispositioned.

6.7  
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 (base) 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.  
6.8  
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 3.8 for power  
requirements on the standard (non-SED) drive models.  
6.9  
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 6:  
• Security Protocol Out (B5h)  
• Security Protocol In (A2h)  
6.10  
RevertSP  
The SED models will support RevertSP feature where it 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.  
6.11  
ATA Security Erase Unit Command on SED SATA drives  
The ATA SECURITY ERASE UNIT command shall support both the Normal and Enhanced erase modes with  
the following modifications/additions:  
• Normal Erase: Normal erase shall be accomplished by changing the media encryption key for the drive fol-  
lowed by an overwrite operation that repeatedly writes a single sector containing random data to the entire  
drive. The write operation shall bypass the media encryption. On reading back the overwritten sectors, the  
host will receive a decrypted version, using the new encryption key, of the random data sector (the returned  
data will not match what was written).  
Enhanced Erase: Enhanced erase shall be accomplished by changing the media encryption key for the drive.  
6.12  
Sanitize Feature Set on SED Drives  
The drive shall support the Sanitize Feature Set as defined in ANSI/INCITS ACS-2 with the exceptions and/or  
modifications described in this section.  
The drive shall not support the OVERWRITE EXT and BLOCK ERASE EXT sub-commands.  
Support of the SANITIZE FREEZE LOCK EXT command shall be determined on a customer-specific basis.  
OEM drives shall support the command.

Identify Device command  
The Identify Device command (command code EC ) transfers information about the drive to the host following  
H
power up. The data is organized as a single 512-byte block of data, whose contents are shown in Table 6 on  
page 31. 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. See Section 3.0 on page 4 for default parameter settings.  
The following commands contain drive-specific features that may not be included in the Serial ATA  
specification.

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 inter-  
rupt. 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:

7.3.3  
S.M.A.R.T. commands  
S.M.A.R.T. provides near-term failure prediction for disc drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive moni-  
tors 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 D4 ) that elimi-  
H
nates 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. You 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.
