4.0Performance characteristics

This section provides detailed information concerning performance-related characteristics and features of Cheetah 15K.5 FC drives.

4.1Internal drive characteristics

	ST3300655FC	ST3146855FC	ST373455FC
Drive capacity*	300.0	146.8	73.4	Gbytes (formatted, rounded off value)
Read/write data heads	8	4	2
Bytes per track	74,340	74,340	74,340	Bytes (average, rounded off values)
Tracks per inch	125,000	125,000	125,000	TPI
Peak bits per inch	890k	890k	890k	BPI
Areal density	110	110	110	Gbits/inch2
Internal data rate	960 to 1607	960 to 1607	960 to 1607	Mbits/sec (variable with zone)
Disc rotation speed	15k	15k	15k	rpm
Avg rotational latency	2.0	2.0	2.0	msec

*One Gbyte equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and formatting.

4.2Seek performance characteristics

See Section 9.5, "FC-AL physical interface" on page 64 and the Fibre Channel Interface Manual (part number 77767496) for additional timing details.

4.2.1Access time

Not including controller overhead1,2(msec)

		Read	Write
Average	Typical	3.5	4.0
Single track	Typical	0.2	0.4
Full stroke	Typical	6.8	7.5

1.Typical access times are measured under nominal conditions of temperature, voltage, and horizontal orientation as measured on a representative sample of drives.

2.Access to data = access time + latency time.
