9.5Synchronous data transfer

The data transfer period to be used by the drive and the initiator is established by an exchange of messages during the Message Phase of operation. See the section on message protocol in the SCSI Interface Product Manual, part number 75789509.

9.5.1Synchronous data transfer periods supported

In the following tables, M is the synchronous period value (in the transfer rate negotiation message) that repre- sents the associated transfer period and transfer rate values.

Table 11 lists the synchronous data transfer periods supported by the drive in DT DATA phase. DT DATA phase is only allowed when using the LVD interface.

9.5.2REQ/ACK offset

Cheetah 10K.7 SCSI family drives support REQ/ACK offset values from 7 to 63 (3Fh). Offsets of 1 through 6 are negotiated to 0 (asynchronous transfer).

9.6Physical interface

This section describes the connectors, cables, signals, terminators and bus timing of the DC and SCSI I/O interface. See Section 9.8 and Section 9.9 for additional terminator information.

Figures 22 and 23 show the locations of the DC power connector, SCSI interface connector, drive select head- ers, and option select headers.

Details of the physical, electrical and logical characteristics are given in sections following, while the SCSI operational aspects of Seagate drive interfaces are given in the SCSI Interface Product Manual.
