5.0Reliability specifications

The following reliability specifications assume correct host/drive operational interface, including all interface timings, power supply voltages, environmental requirements and drive mounting constraints (see Section 8.4).

Seek Errors

Less than 10 in 108 seeks

Read Error Rates [1]

 

Recovered Data

Less than 10 errors in 1012 bits transferred (OEM default settings)

Unrecovered Data

Less than 1 sector in 1015 bits transferred (OEM default settings)

Miscorrected Data

Less than 1 sector in 1021 bits transferred

AFR

0.62%

Service Life

5 years

Preventive Maintenance

None required

Note.

[1]Error rate specified with automatic retries and data correction with ECC enabled and all flaws reallocated.

5.1Error rates

The error rates stated in this specification assume the following:

The drive is operated per this specification using DC power as defined in this manual (see Section 6.2).

Errors caused by host system failures are excluded from error rate computations.

Assume random data.

Default OEM error recovery settings are applied. This includes AWRE, ARRE, full read retries, full write retries and full retry time.

5.1.1Recoverable Errors

Recovereable errors are those detected and corrected by the drive, and do not require user intervention.

Recoverable Data errors will use correction, although ECC on-the-fly is not considered for purposes of recov- ered error specifications.

Recovered Data error rate is determined using read bits transferred for recoverable errors occurring during a read, and using write bits transferred for recoverable errors occurring during a write.

5.1.2Unrecoverable Errors

Unrecoverable Data Errors (Sense Key = 03h) are specified at less than 1 sector in error per 1015 bits trans- ferred. Unrecoverable Data Errors resulting from the same cause are treated are 1 error for that block.
