PRODUCTSPECIFICATIONS

EMC/EMI

Radiated Electromagnetic Field Emissions - EMC Compliance

The hard disk drive mechanism is designed as a subassembly for installation into a suitable enclosure and is therefore not subject to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules (47CFR15) or the Canadian Department of Communications Radio Interference Regulations. Although not required, the disk mechanism has been tested within a suitable end-use product and found to comply with Class B limits of the FCC Rules and Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

The CE Marking indicates conformity with the European Union Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC) when the disk mechanism is installed in a typical personal computer. Maxtor recommends that testing and analysis for EMC compliance be performed with the disk mechanism installed within the user's end-use application.

Canadian Emissions Statement

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian department of communications.

Le present appareil numerique n'emet pas de bruit radioelectriques depassant les limites applicables aux appareils numeriques de Class B prescrites dans le reglement sur le brouillage radioelectrique edicte par le ministere des communications du Canada.

Radiated Magnetic Field Emissions

Minimum of VDE Class B and MIL-STD-461/462, Method RE01 (stand-alone test configuration).

Radiated Electromagnetic Field Immunity

IEC 801-3, Class 2 compliance.

Radiated Magnetic Field Immunity

Per MIL-STD-461/462, Method RD01(15 Hz to 100 kHz, stand-alone test configuration).

Standard Test Methods

Traditional hard drive specifications are open to incorrect interpretation, but MIL-STD test methods accurately measure how products perform in real-world conditions. These methods have gained worldwide acceptance since they reflect actual environments, have well-defined test requirements, are easily understood and provide repeatable results. They objectively demonstrate to our customers the reliable, durable design of Maxtor hard drives. Each MIL-STD specification provides the basic method and condition information needed for reference by a knowledgeable Test and Qualification Engineer.

Acoustic specifications such as sound pressure are misleading because the test methods used are not controlled by recognizable standards. The sound pressure measurement itself is the least meaningful indicator of noise emissions as it relates to the human ear. The specification of sound power, loudness and sharpness are considered the most accurate acoustic measurement methodologies recognized by the leading acoustic measurement experts. ISO 7779, sound power, ISO 532B, loudness and sharpness (proposed ANSI standard by Eberhard Zwicker) are repeatable test methods providing results reproducible in any properly equipped acoustic lab.

Safety Regulatory Compliance

All Maxtor DiamondMax™ 2160 drives comply with relevant product safety standards such as CE, CUL, TUV and UL rules and regulations. As delivered, DiamondMax 2160 hard disk drives are designed for system integration before they are used.
