5.0Reliability specifications
The following reliability specifications assume correct host and drive operational interface, including all inter- face timings, power supply voltages, environmental requirements and drive mounting constraints.
Seek error rate | Less than 10 errors in 108 seeks |
Read Error Rates1 |
|
Recovered Data | Less than 10 errors in 1012 bits transferred (OEM default settings) |
Unrecovered Data | Less than 1 sector in 1016 bits transferred |
Miscorrected Data | Less than 1 sector in 1021 bits transferred |
Interface error rate | Less than 1 error in 1012 bits transferred with minimum receive eye. |
| Less than 1 error in 1014 bits transferred with typical receive eye. |
| See Section 9.6.3, "Differential PECL input." on page 65 |
MTBF | 1,600,000 hours |
Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) | 0.55% |
Preventive maintenance | None required |
1.Error rate specified with automatic retries and data correction with ECC enabled and all flaws reallocated.
5.1Error rates
The error rates stated in this manual assume the following:
•The drive is operated in accordance with this manual using DC power as defined in paragraph 6.2, "DC power requirements."
•Errors caused by host system failures are excluded from error rate computations.
•Assume random data.
•Default OEM error recovery settings are applied. This includes AWRE, ARRE, full read retries, full write retries and full retry time.
5.1.1Recoverable Errors
Recoverable errors are those detected and corrected by the drive, and do not require user intervention.
Recoverable Data errors will use correction, although ECC
Recovered Data error rate is determined using read bits transferred for recoverable errors occurring during a read, and using write bits transferred for recoverable errors occurring during a write.
