2.12Agency certification

2.12.1Safety certification

The drives are recognized in accordance with UL 1950 and CSA C22.2 (950) and meet all applicable sections of IEC950 and EN 60950 as tested by TUV North America.

2.12.2Electromagnetic compatibility

Hard drives that display the CE mark comply with the European Union (EU) requirements specified in the Elec- tromagnetic Compatibility Directive (89/336/EEC). 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.

Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance with the EC directives specified in the previous paragraph. 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.

Korean RRL

If these drives have the Korea Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) logo, they comply with para- graph 1 of Article 11 of the Electromagnetic Compatibility control Regulation and meet the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of the Radio Research Laboratory (RRL) Ministry of Information and Communication Republic of Korea.

These drives have been tested and comply with the Electromagnetic Interference/Electromagnetic Susceptibil- ity (EMI/EMS) for Class B products. Drives are tested in a representative, end-user system by a Korean-recog- nized lab.

Australian C-Tick (N176)

If these models have the C-Tick marking, they comply with the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS3548 1995 and meet the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of the Australian Communi- cation Authority (ACA).

2.12.3FCC verification

These drives are intended to be contained solely within a personal computer or similar enclosure (not attached as an external device). As such, each drive is considered to be a subassembly even when it is individually mar- keted to the customer. As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission verification or certification of the device is required.

Seagate Technology LLC has tested this device in enclosures as described above to ensure that the total assembly (enclosure, disc drive, motherboard, power supply, etc.) does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J, Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation with noncertified assemblies is likely to result in interference to radio and television reception.

ST3500641NS, ST3500841NS specifications

The Seagate ST3500841NS and ST3500641NS are robust hard drives specifically designed for enterprise environments, catering to the demanding needs of data centers, server farms, and storage solutions. These drives are part of Seagate's enterprise series and reflect a commitment to reliability, performance, and capacity.

One of the main features of the ST3500841NS and ST3500641NS is their impressive storage capacity. The ST3500841NS offers 500GB of storage, while the ST3500641NS provides a slightly lower capacity at 640GB. Both drives utilize a standard 3.5-inch form factor, making them suitable for a variety of server and storage configurations. They operate at a high spindle speed of 7200 RPM, which contributes to faster data access and overall improved performance compared to traditional 5400 RPM drives.

These drives are designed to sustain high workloads and feature a mean time between failures (MTBF) rating that ensures reliability over extended periods of operation. With their enhanced error correction capabilities, data integrity is maintained even under heavy loads, making these drives ideal for use in critical applications where data loss is not an option.

The integration of technologies such as Native Command Queuing (NCQ) enhances the performance of these drives in multi-user environments. NCQ allows the drive to optimize the order of read and write commands, reducing latency and improving overall throughput. Furthermore, the ST3500841NS and ST3500641NS both feature an SATA interface, supporting speeds of up to 3.0 Gb/s, which is the standard for modern storage solutions.

Another noteworthy characteristic of these drives is their energy efficiency. Despite their robust performance, the ST3500841NS and ST3500641NS are designed to consume less power, thereby reducing operational costs and contributing to a more sustainable data center environment.

In summary, the Seagate ST3500841NS and ST3500641NS are purpose-built for enterprise applications, offering a blend of capacity, performance, and reliability. Their advanced technologies, coupled with impressive MTBF ratings and energy efficiency, make them suitable for critical applications in various high-demand environments. Whether utilized in small server systems or large-scale data centers, these drives provide the robust performance that businesses require in today’s data-driven landscape.
