5.6Confirming Operations after Installation and Preparation for use

5.6.1Confirming initial operations

This section describes the operation check procedures after power is turned on. Since the initial operation of the IDD depends on the setting of the motor start mode, check the initial operation by either of the following procedures.

(1)Initial operation in the case of setting so that motor starts at powering-on

a)When power is turned on, the LED blinks an instant and the IDD executes initial self- diagnosis.

b)If an error is detected in the initial self-diagnosis, the LED blinks periodically.

Remark:

The spindle motor may or may not start rotating in this stage.

c)When the IDD status is idle, the LED remains off (when the initiator accesses the IDD via the SCSI bus, the LED lights).

(2)Initial operation in the case of setting so that motor starts with START/STOP command

a)When power is turned on, the LED blinks an instant and the IDD executes initial self- diagnosis.

b)If an error is detected in the initial self-diagnosis, the LED blinks.

c)The spindle motor does not start rotating until the START/STOP UNIT command for the start is issued. The INIT needs to issue the START/STOP UNIT command to start the spindle motor by the procedure in Subsection 5.6.2.

d)The disk drive enters the READY status in 60 seconds after the START/STOP UNIT command is issued. At this time, the IDD reads "system information" from the system space on the disk.

e)The LED blinks during command execution.

(3)Check items at illegal operation

a)Check that cables are mounted correctly.

b)Check that power and voltages are supplied correctly (measure them with the IDD power connection position).

c)Check the setting of each setting terminal. Note that the initial operation depends on the setting of the motor start mode and LED display requirements.

Its SCSI interface allows for multiple device connections, making it ideal for enterprise-level applications where performance is critical.

The MAE3091LC, on the other hand, also features a 10,000 RPM spindle speed but caters to a slightly lower capacity of 9.1 GB. Its Ultra SCSI interface ensures swift data throughput, making it suitable for data-intensive applications. The drive’s robust construction is designed to withstand the rigors of continuous operation, offering an MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) rating that speaks to its reliability and endurance in demanding environments.

Moving on to the MAF3364LP, this model offers similar capacity to the MAF3364LC but operates at a lower power consumption rating, making it an eco-friendly choice for users who are conscious of energy usage. It retains the same high-speed performance capabilities, thanks to its efficient design and technology integrations.

The MAG3182LC is known for its high-capacity support and performance balance, with 18.2 GB of storage and a spindle speed of 10,000 RPM. It boasts enhanced data integrity features and advanced error correction technologies that allow for high data accuracy and reliability, ensuring that enterprises can depend on their stored information.

Lastly, the MAE3182LC offers a mix of performance and capacity, with its 18.2 GB storage. Utilizing a SCSI interface and maintaining a robust build, this drive is particularly suited for server environments that demand long continuous running times without compromising reliability.

In summary, these Fujitsu drives encompass advanced technologies, robust designs, and high-speed performance, catering to various needs from enterprise storage to high-demand applications. Their characteristics ensure that users receive not only adequate capacity but also reliability and efficiency, solidifying Fujitsu's reputation in the storage solutions market.
