About Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA disc drives
Momentus® 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives contain DriveTrust technology providing Full Disc Encryption (FDE)
using proven Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption and decryption.
You can elect to use Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives in one of two different security modes:
1. The ATA Security mode
To operate in ATA Security mode, you only need a host system and operating system that supports the
existing ATA Security Command Set. The drive is shipped to operating in this mode, ready to use.
2. The DriveTrust Security mode
To enable a robust enterprise-level security and management policy, you may elect to operate in
DriveTrust Security mode. To do so, you will need to use a third-party security application to manage the
DriveTrust features. Please contact your system or software provider for more details.
Refer to the table below to determine which mode is best for your particular solution.

FDE drive feature list
• Automatically encrypts (and decrypts) all data on the drive
• Operations are performed with no measurable performance loss
• All user data is encrypted on write operations and decrypted on read operations
FDE benefits
• Drive-level protection of data
• Drives that are stolen, taken out of service, or re-purposed remain fully protected
• Near instantaneous disposal and re-purposing of the drive (ensures that data from previous user is not
accessible by the new drive owner)
• Able to be deployed within a trusted computing environment
The drive encrypts every write operation and decrypts every read operation without user intervention. The
encryption and decryption is done on the drive itself, so there is a near-zero performance impact when the
drive writes and reads data. The performance-optimized encryption and decryption engine performs at the
SATA interface speed.
The purpose of full disc encryption on the drive is to protect the data stored on the drive in the event that the
host system is lost or stolen. This data at rest protection assures the system owner that if their system is lost or
stolen, their data will not be accessible without the correct credentials.
Note. The system reauthenticates the user on powerup and when awakening from sleep mode. It is not
necessary to power down to ensure that the system reauthenticates the user.

Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA Product Manual, Rev. A
Having the encryption/decryption on the drive also provides the highest level of security for data because all
data, including the boot sector bytes, operating system, temp and even the swap files are encrypted at the
drive level.
1.2.1
Drive state upon shipment
Upon shipment from the Seagate factory, the ATA Security Interface is enabled and functioning. This is
referred to as operating in ATA Security mode. The following is the detailed state of the drive upon shipment.
• Full Disc Encryption is active and functioning. All user data is encrypted on write and decrypted on read.
• The user interface to the drive is active and all read and write commands are allowed.
• The ATA user password is null (no value).
• The ATA master password is set to the Security ID (SID).
• ATA Security is set to the unlocked state. No password is required to access the drive.
Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives may be integrated into the computer system in the same way you would
integrate a non-FDE Momentus drive.
The encryption key is enabled and operational when the drive leaves the Seagate factory. No user id is
required to access the drive, so the data on the drive is accessible to anyone possessing the drive.

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 5,000 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) through a native SATA power connector.
2.9.1 Power consumption
Power requirements for the drives are listed in table 3. Typical power measurements are based on an average
of drives tested, under nominal conditions, at 25°C ambient temperature.
• Spinup power
Spinup power is measured fromthe time ofpower-onto thetimethat 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 is measured based on
three random seek operations every 100 msecs. This mode is not typical.
• Read/write power and current
Read/write power is measured with the heads on track, based on three 63 sector read or write operations
every 100 msecs.
• 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 model

• 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 in Self Refresh Low Power mode, 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 buffer
is in Self Refresh Low Power mode, 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.

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 corro-
sive chemicals as electronic drive component reliability can be affected by the installation environment. The sil-
ver, 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 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.

Configuring and mounting the drive
This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.
Momentus® 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives may be connected to any computer system that supports a standard
SATA interface.
You can elect to use Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives in one of two different security modes:
1. The ATA Security mode
To operate in ATA Security mode, you only need a host system and operating system that supports the
existing ATA Security Command Set. The drive is shipped to operating in this mode, ready to use.
2. The DriveTrust Security mode
To enable a robust enterprise-level security and management policy, you may elect to operate in
DriveTrust Security mode. To do so, you will need to use a third-party security application to manage the
DriveTrust features. Please contact your system or software provider for more details.
Refer to Table 1 on page 2 to determine which mode is best for your particular solution.
Note. As with any disc drive, Seagate highly encourages consumers to consistently back up their data as
well as the security pre-boot password, user name, and domain name on another storage device.
Seagate is not responsible for lost or stolen authentication data such as passwords, user names,
domain names, or any authentication data perceived to be inoperative, and as a consequence of
lost or stolen passwords, user names, or domain names, Seagate cannot be held liable for data
that cannot be retrieved from the drive due to inability to authenticate the user to the drive as
required by the security pre-boot software.
3.1
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:
• Keep the drive in the electrostatic discharge (ESD) bag until you are ready for installation to limit the drive’s
exposure to ESD.
• 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 only by its edges or frame.
• The drive is 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.
Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA Product Manual, Rev. A

• Do not obstruct the breather hole located on the top cover of the drive. Refer to Figure 4 for the exact location
of this hole.
3.2
Configuring the drive
Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects in a point-to-point configuration with the Serial ATA host
adapter. There is no master/slave relationship because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point
relationships. 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 means both drives behave as if they are
Device 0 (master) devices.
Serial ATA drives are designed for easy installation with no jumpers, terminators, or other settings. It is not nec-
essary to set any jumpers on this drive for proper operation. The jumper block adjacent to the signal connector
is for factory use only.

After initialization, the consumer will just need to enter their User password each time the computer is booted
according to the following description:
1. The computer system is turned on or the hardware is reset.
2. The drive reports to the BIOS that it is in the locked state per standard ATA Security Command reporting.
3. The BIOS queries the user for the password.
4. The BIOS supplies the password to the drive using the Security Unlock Command (F2).
5. The drive is unlocked and the BIOS may continue the booting process.
6. The BIOS enters the Security Freeze Lock Command (F5) prior to exiting the boot sequence.
Note. To ensure that the system reauthenticates the user, turn the laptop power off (shut down) rather
than putting it in sleep mode. The system will authenticate the user at powerup.

Security Erase--ATA security commands
The Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA provides powerful features for cryptographically erasing the drive for dis-
posal or repurposing. The drive uses the ATA Security Erase Prepare (F3) and ATA Security Erase (F4) com-
mands to perform the cryptographic erase.
3.6.1
Secure Erase procedure
Using the Security Erase commands, the drive's cryptographic key can be replaced according to the following
procedure:
1. Consumer boots up the computer normally according to the Consumer Usage section above.
2. Consumer invokes software or BIOS option for Erase.
3. The software or BIOS queries the user for either the User or Master password.
4. The software or BIOS issues the Security Erase Prepare (F3) command.
5. The software or BIOS issues the Security Erase Unit (F4) command.
Select the Enhanced erase for cryptographic key erasure that completes in less than one second.
3.6.2
Drive State after Secure Erase
Upon completion of the erase sequence, the existing cryptographic key is erased, rendering all existing data
unintelligible, and the drive has been returned to the manufactured state as follows:
• The existing encryption key is deleted.
Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA Product Manual, Rev. A
25
• A new random encryption key has been created on the drive.
• Encryption function is active and functioning.
The new key is used to encrypt all user data on write and decrypt on read.
• The user interface to the drive is active and all read and write commands are allowed.
• The ATA User password is reset to null (no value).
• The ATA Master password is not modified
The ATA Master password is the same value as it was before the erase.
• The ATA Security is set to the Unlocked state.
No password is required to access the drive.
The drive may now be disposed of safely, or the drive may be returned to service for another consumer follow-
ing the initialization procedure defined above. Drives returned to Seagate for warranty purposes have special

Serial ATA interface
These drives use the industry-standard Serial ATA (SATA) interface that supports FIS data transfers. It sup-
ports ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; multiword DMA modes 0–2, and Ultra DMA modes 0–6.
The drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.
For detailed information about the Serial ATA interface, refer to the “Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT
Attachment” specification.
4.1
Hot-Plug compatibility
Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives incorporate connectors which enable you to hot plug these drives in
accordance with the Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment specification revision 2.0. This specifi-
after a hotplug event.

Notes:
1. All pins are in a single row, with a 1.27 mm (0.050”) pitch.
2. The comments on the mating sequence apply to the case of backplane blindmate connector only. In this
case, the mating sequences are:
• the ground pins P4 and P12.
• the pre-charge power pins and the other ground pins.
• the signal pins and the rest of the power pins.
3. There are three power pins for each voltage. One pin from each voltage is used for pre-charge when
installed in a blind-mate backplane configuration.
4. All used voltage pins (Vx) must be terminated.

4.2.1
ATA Security policy exceptions
In the ATA Security Interface mode, the drive conforms to the ATA Security Policy, except the following desir-
able exceptions to implement the desired Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA behavior:
Upon execution of the secure erase sequence, the drive will have the following behavior:
• All secure erase modes will instantaneously delete the encryption key rendering all user data unintelligible.
• A new encryption key will be generated inside the drive replacing the previous encryption key.
• The new encryption/decryption key will be applied to the data for all subsequent writes/reads prior to the
next secure erase sequence.
• The user password will be cleared to a null value.
• The master password will retain the current value per the ATA specification.
Note. On completion of this sequence, the user is assured that all sectors on the drive are unintelligible and
the drive is returned to the default factory state. It is then immediately ready for disposal or repurpos-
ing.
The ATA Security Erase Unit Command provides for normal and enhanced erase modes as follows:

1 = Enhanced Erase
Bit (15:2)

Choosing enhanced erase mode will simply perform the cryptographic erase described above, and return sta-
tus almost immediately. This is the recommended option.
To maintain consistency with the ATA Security specification, Momentus 7200 FDE.1 SATA drives provide an
option to perform the Normal Erase mode.
Choosing normal erase will result in the drive performing the cryptographic erase which is the same as choos-
ing enhanced erase.

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.

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:
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.

Compatibility summary
5.1
Installation considerations
Many of today’s mobile computers have been designed to make it possible for the end user to replace the hard
drive. Refer to your system’s user manual for the location of the hard drive compartment and the specific
instructions regarding replacement. Refer to your system manufacturer’s support website for the most up-to-
date information. Read and follow all instructions regarding the proper steps to be taken when replacing the
system hard drive.
Some mobile systems are sealed and require specialized tools to gain access to the hard drive. Special train-
ing or tools may be needed to service some mobile computers. In some cases, opening the case may void
your warranty. Consult your system documentation. Seagate recommends taking your system to an authorized
service technician to replace your hard drive.
5.2
