3.13Reliability

3.13.1Annualized 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.

Nonrecoverable read errors	1 per 1015 bits read, max
Annualized Failure Rate (AFR)	0.73% (nominal power, 40°C case temperature)

Load unload cycles	300,000 cycles

3.14Agency certification

3.14.1Safety certification

These products are certified to meet the requirements of UL60950-1, CSA60950-1 and EN60950 and so marked as to the certify agency.

3.14.2Electromagnetic compatibility

Hard drives that display the CE mark comply with the European Union (EU) requirements specified in the Elec- tromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2004/108/EC) as put into place 20 July 2007. Testing is performed to the levels specified by the product standards for Information Technology Equipment (ITE). Emission levels are defined by EN 55022, Class B and the immunity levels are defined by EN 55024.

Drives are tested in representative end-user systems. Although CE-marked Seagate drives comply with the directives when used in the test systems, we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply with the directives. The drive is designed for operation inside a properly designed enclosure, with properly shielded I/O cable (if necessary) and terminators on all unused I/O ports. Computer manufacturers and system integrators should confirm EMC compliance and provide CE marking for their products.

The Seagate ST33000652NS is designed for high-capacity storage, offering 3 TB of space. It utilizes a SATA 6Gb/s interface which ensures rapid data transfer rates, making it suitable for environments that demand quick access to large datasets. Its 7200 RPM spindle speed enhances performance, ensuring that read and write operations are executed swiftly.

Similarly, the ST33000651NS also provides 3 TB of storage but is slightly optimized for different workloads. Both models feature Seagate’s advanced caching technology, which enhances performance by efficiently managing data flow to and from the drive. This is crucial for applications requiring high-throughput operations, such as video streaming and database management.

Transitioning to the Seagate SED FIPS 140-2 model, this drive is particularly focused on data security. The FIPS 140-2 certification indicates that it adheres to stringent federal standards for cryptographic modules, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected. This model caters to government and enterprise clients concerned about the integrity and confidentiality of their data.

On the other hand, the ST33000650NS also features a similar capacity but is geared towards reliability and endurance. It is engineered to endure the challenges of continuous operation, accommodating enterprise environments that require 24/7 accessibility without compromising performance.

All these models come with integrated power management features that enhance energy efficiency, reducing operational costs while minimizing environmental impact. They also utilize Seagate’s innovative technologies for error recovery and data integrity, ensuring users can rely on their performance under demanding circumstances.

In summary, the Seagate ST33000652NS, ST33000651NS, SED FIPS 140-2, and ST33000650NS collectively offer a diverse range of features catered for various enterprise needs. With a strong emphasis on storage capacity, data security, and performance reliability, these drives are well-equipped to handle the intensive demands of modern digital landscapes. Whether looking for high-speed access or enhanced security features, Seagate continues to deliver trustworthy solutions for today’s data-driven world.
