5.2.2Format command execution time for 512-byte sectors (minutes) ST9500430SS, ST9500431SS & ST9500432SS

Maximum (with verify)

216

Maximum (without verify)

108

Note. There is approximately a 1.5 increase in time to format a SED drive versus a non-SED drive of the same capacity.

5.2.3General performance characteristics

Minimum sector interleave

1 to 1

Data buffer to/from disc media (one 512-byte logical block)*

75 to 142 MBytes/sec

Sustained transfer rate

95 to 100 Mbytes/sec

SAS Interface maximum instantaneous transfer rate

600 Mbytes/sec* per port

 

(dual port = 1200 Mbytes/sec*)

Logical block sizes

 

512 (default), 520 or 528.

 

Read/write consecutive sectors on a track

Yes

Flaw reallocation performance impact (for flaws reallocated at format time using the

Negligible

spare sectors per sparing zone reallocation scheme.)

 

Average rotational latency

4.16 msec

*Assumes no errors and no relocated logical blocks. Rate measured from the start of the first logical block transfer to or from the host.

5.3Start/stop time

The drive accepts the commands listed in the SAS Interface Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has been applied.

If the drive receives a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port and has not received a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 30 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure).

If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 0 before receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive, the drive waits for a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1. After receiving a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit equal to 1, the drive waits for a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive. After receiving a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive through either port, the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 30 seconds (excluding the error recovery procedure).

If the drive receives a START STOP UNIT command with the START bit and IMMED bit equal to 1 and does not receive a NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive within 5 seconds, the drive fails the START STOP UNIT command.

The START STOP UNIT command may be used to command the drive to stop the spindle. Stop time is 20 sec- onds (maximum) from removal of DC power. SCSI stop time is 20 seconds. There is no power control switch on the drive.
