Electrostatic discharge protection  
Caution. Removal of circuit boards by personnel not  
performing depot repair will damage com-  
ponents and may void the warranty.  
All drive electronic assemblies are sensitive to static  
electricity, due to the electrostatically sensitive devices  
used within the drive circuitry. Although some devices  
suchasmetal-oxidesemiconductorsareextremelysen-  
sitive, allsemiconductors, aswellassomeresistorsand  
capacitors, may be damaged or degraded by exposure  
to static electricity.  
Electrostatic damage to electronic devices may be  
caused by the direct discharge of a charged conductor  
or by exposure to the static fields surrounding charged  
objects.Toavoiddamagingdriveelectronicassemblies,  
observe the following precautions when installing or  
servicing the drive:

• Ensure that the internal temperature of the rack or  
cabinet does not exceed the limits defined for the drive  
when the drive is mounted in an equipment rack or  
cabinet. When units are stacked vertically, pay special  
attention to the top where temperatures are usually  
highest.  
• Follow the precautions listed above in “Electrostatic  
discharge protection.”  
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive chas-  
sis. Return the entire drive for depot repair if any circuit  
board is defective. Removal of circuit boards by per-  
sonnel not performing depot repair will damage com-  
ponents and may void the warranty.  
• Donotremovetheheadanddiscassembly(HDA)from  
the drive chassis. Return the entire drive for depot  
repair if the HDA is defective.  
• Do not attempt to disassemble the HDA. It is not field  
repairable. If the sealed HDA is opened by personnel  
not performing depot repair, this will damage compo-  
nents and void the warranty.  
As a component, this drive is designed to be installed  
and operated in accordance with UL1950, IEC950,  
EN60950, CSA C22.2 950, and VDE0805.

dards. Typical applications of these disc drives include  
customer packaging and subsystem design. Safety  
agencies conditionally certify component assemblies,  
such asthe Barracuda disc drive, based on their final  
acceptability in the end-use product. The subsystem  
designers are responsible for meeting these conditions  
of acceptability in obtaining safety/regulatory agency  
compliancein their end-use products and for certifying  
where required by law. A necessary part of meeting  
safety requirements is the provision for overcurrent  
protection on drive SELV supply voltages.  
This unit is a component part and as such is not meant

General description  
Barracuda 2, 2HP SCSI disc drives are high-speed,  
random-access data storage devices. Two-head par-  
allel technology effectively doubles the internal data  
transfer rate when compared to non-parallel head  
technologies.  
ST12450W/WD drives are illustrated in Figure 1. Speci-  
fications and DC power requirements for the drives are  
listed in tables following the figure.  
The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure  
designed for the drive. This is often a rack within the  
system or an external enclosure designed to house one  
or more disc drives or other peripheral units. In either  
case,thediscdrivemustreceiveadequatecooling(refer  
to “Providing adequate cooling”) and it must be suffi-  
ciently grounded and shielded from emissions. The  
Barracuda 2, 2HP Product Manual (part number  
83328900) contains guidelinesforaproperlydesigned  
enclosure.

2 A –10% tolerance is permissible during initial start of the  
spindle but must return to±5% before reaching 7,200 RPM.  
The±5% must be maintained after the drive signifies that its  
power-up sequence has been completed and that the drive  
is able to accept selection by the host initiator.  
3 See the +12V current profile in the Barracuda 2, 2HP  
Product Manual (publication number 83328900).  
4 This condition occurs when the Motor Start option is en-  
abled and the drive has not yet received a Start Motor  
command.  
5 See “Conducted noise immunity” in the Barracuda 2, 2HP  
Product Manual. The specified voltage tolerance is inclu-  
sive of ripple, noise, and transient response.  
6 At power-up, the motor current regulator limits the +12V  
current to an average value of less than 2.0A, although  
instantaneous peaks may exceed this value. These peaks  
should measure 5 msec duration or less.  
7 Minimum current loading for each supply voltage is not less  
than 3% of the maximum operating current shown.  
8 Use separate ground returns for +5 and +12V supplies.  
9 Where power is provided to multiple drives from a common  
supply, carefully consider individual-drive power require-  
ments.Wheremultipleunitsarepoweredonsimultaneously,  
be sure the peak starting current is available to each device.  
10 Operating condition is a third-stroke seek at OD and Read

ST12450W/WD Installation Guide, Rev. B  
Setting the SCSI ID jumpers  
EachdeviceontheSCSIchainmusthaveauniqueSCSI  
ID. The host system’s SCSI controller usually uses the  
highest-numbered ID available (ID15 in wide systems);  
therefore the lower-numbered SCSI IDs are normally  
used for the other SCSI devices such as thisBarracuda  
disc drive.  
Note. MostSCSIcontrollers(hostadapters)allowyouto  
skip a SCSI ID. For example, you can have ID0,  
ID1, and ID3 (skipping ID2). Other controllers do  
not allow this so be sure to refer to your system or  
controller user’s manual for details about its re-  
quirements for proper SCSI device installation.  
Use connector J5 to set the SCSI ID (Figure 2). Most  
Barracuda disc drives are factory set with the SCSI ID  
set at 0. To change the SCSI ID, install jumpers on the  
appropriate pins as shown in the illustration.  
If, after completing the installation process, the drive’s  
LEDdoesnotshowon/offactivitywhenthehostistrying  
to communicate with the drive, a duplicate SCSI ID may  
be the problem. If this is the case, change the ID so that  
each device on the SCSI chain has its own unique ID.  
Also check your system or controller user’s manual to  
ensurethatyouhavenotviolateditsSCSIIDnumbering  
recommendations.

Terminating the drive  
If you are installing aBarracuda2, 2HPdriveinasystem  
thathasotherSCSIdevicesinstalled, terminateonlythe  
end devices on the SCSI chain. A SCSI “device” is any  
disc drive, scanner, tape-backup unit, or other piece of  
hardwareconnectedtoyoursystemusingtheSCSIbus.  
The top example in Figure 3 shows an internal hard disc  
atoneendoftheSCSIbuswiththeSCSIcontrolleratthe  
other end (both are terminated). The bottom example  
shows two additional SCSI devices connected exter-  
nally—thismeanstheSCSIcontrollerisnolongeronthe

pins 11 and 12 of connector J4.  
Note. Use active t erminators when terminating the bus.  
ST12450WD (differential) drives do not have internal  
terminators or any other way of adding internal termina-  
tion to the drive. You must provide external termination  
to these drives when termination is required.

Synchronizing spindles  
in multiple drive configurations  
If you are installing two or more Barracuda drives, you  
may (optionally) want to synchronize their spindles to  
reduce the latency associated with switching from one  
drive to another.  
Spindle sync cables are used to connect the drives.  
Use pins 11 and 12 on the J5 connector to attach the  
spindle sync cable. Pin 11 provides the reference index  
signal (REFSIG+) and pin 12 provides ground (GND).  
See Figure 7.

Figure 8 illustrates a typical synchronized spindle  
configuration.  
After connecting each drive with spindle sync cables,  
you must designate a master spindle sync reference  
source. This master source is normally a disc drive  
located on the same SCSI bus as the other drives you  
want to synchronize with. To designate a drive as the  
master, use SCSI interface commands. Refer to the  
product manual for information about using these  
commands.

Providing adequate cooling  
The enclosure design must ensure adequate cooling  
for the drive. The maximum ambient temperature is  
50oC.  
Thedrive’s product manual(83328900) describes how  
to evaluatethe air-flow design.The evaluation consists  
ofensuringthatthecasetemperaturesofcertaincritical  
components remain within acceptable limits during  
drive operation.  
We recommend orienting the drive or directing the air  
flow in a way that creates the least amount of air-flow  
resistance while providing air flow above the circuit  
boards and around thehead and disc assembly(HDA).  
Also,choosetheshortest possible pathbetweentheair  
inlet and exit. This minimizes the distance traveled by  
air that is heated by the drive and by other nearby heat  
sources.  
Figure 9 shows two design approaches with one or  
more fans used to generate air flow. The air-flow pat-  
terns can be created by the fans either pushing or  
drawing air. The overall flow pattern can be directed  
from front to back, back to front, or side to side.

Mounting the drive and connecting cables  
Do not touch the connector pins or any components on  
the control board without observing static-discharge  
precautions. Always handle the drive by the frame only.  
The drive may be mounted in any orientation (horizon-  
tally, vertically, and any combination thereof); however,  
you must ensure that the drive receives adequate air  
flow for cooling.  
1. Mount the drive to the host system’s chassis using  
four 6-32 UNC screws. Two mounting holes are in  
each side of the drive and there are four mounting  
holes in the bottom of the drive.  
The maximum length that the screws should ex-  
tend into the chassis mounting holes is 0.15 inch  
(3.81 mm), measured from the outer surface of the  
chassis. Tighten the screws down evenly. Do not  
over-tighten or force the screw if it does not seem to  
screw in easily, because this means the threads are  
not properly aligned. In this case, back the screw out  
and try again.

Installation des Laufwerkes  
und Anschluß der Kabel  
Beachten Sie beim Handhaben und Anfassen der  
Anschlußstifte und Komponenten die  
Vorsichtsmaßnahmen zur Verhinderung statischer  
Aufladung. Fassen Sie das Laufwerk nur am Rahmen an.  
Das Laufwerk kann in beliebiger Orientierung (horizon-  
tal, vertikal oder schräg) installiert werden; jedoch muß  
dafür gesorgt werden, daß ein ausreichender Luftstrom  
zur Kühlung des Laufwerkes vorhanden ist.  
1. Befestigen Sie das Laufwerk mit vier 6-32-UNC-  
Schrauben am Gehäuse des Host-Systems. Die  
beiden Seiten des Laufwerkes sind mit jeweils zwei  
Befestigungslöchern versehen, die Unterseite des  
Laufwerkes weist vier weitere Befestigungslöcher  
auf.  
GemessenvonderAußenflächedesGehäusesdürfen  
die Schrauben maximal 3,81 mm in die  
Befestigungslöcher des Gehüuses hineinragen. Die  
Schrauben müssen gleichmäßig, jedoch nicht zu  
fest, angezogen werden. Wenn sich eine Schraube  
nicht ohne Widerstand einschrauben läßt, sind die  
Gewinde nicht korrekt aneinander ausgerichtet. In  
diesem Fall die Schraube nicht in das Gewindeloch  
forcieren, sondern die Schraube herausnehmen und  
erneut in das Gewindeloch einführen.

Formatting the drive  
Warning. Formatting a drive erases all user data. Be  
sure that you understand this principle before  
formatting any hard disc drive.  
It is not necessary to format a drive which has  
previously been used to store data, unless  
your intention is to erase all user data.  
1. Turn on DC power.  
2. Boot the system from a system floppy disc or from a  
previously installed hard disc drive if there is one.  
3. Format the disc drive. The Barracuda 2, 2HP disc  
driveisdesignedtooperatewithavarietyofoperating  
systems; therefore, please refer to your system or  
SCSI controller manuals for information about for-  
matting and setting up the drive.
