Installation

Damage

 

 

1. When dismounting the drive which is mounted on the system while

5-16

 

power is supplied to it.

 

 

The drive to be dismounted must be separated from the loop.

 

 

Dismounting the drive which is not separated from the loop

 

 

may cause an unexpected error.

 

 

If the drive is not separated from the loop, issue an LPB to the

 

 

drive from the initiator in a primitive sequence of the order

 

 

set.

 

 

It is recommended to stop the spindle motor prior to this loop

 

 

separation operation. The spindle motor can be stopped by a

 

 

START/STOP command. It takes about 30 seconds for the

 

 

spindle motor to stop completely.

 

 

Then, dismount the drive using the drive

 

 

mounting/dismounting mechanism, etc. of the system. If the

 

 

drive is dismounted while the spindle motor is running, special

 

 

care is required to avoid excessive vibration or shock to the

 

 

drive. It is recommended to stop the operation once the SCA

 

 

connector breaks off contact and wait until the spindle motor

 

 

stops (about 30 seconds) before dismount the drive.

 

 

When storing or transporting the drive, put it in an antistatic

 

 

case (Fcell). (Shown in Section 5.1).

 

 

2. When dismounting the drive which is mounted on the system while

 

 

power is not supplied to it.

 

 

Do not move the drive until the drive stops completely (about

 

 

30 seconds if the spindle motor was stopped by a

 

 

START/STOP UNIT command, and about 30 seconds after

 

 

powering-off when the power was simply turned off).

 

 

Then, dismount the drive using the drive

 

 

mounting/dismounting mechanism, etc. of the system.

 

 

When storing or transporting the drive, put it in an antistatic

 

 

case (Fcell). (Shown in Section 5.1).

 

Diagnostics and

Data loss

 

Maintenance

When the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command terminates with the CHECK

6-4

 

 

CONDITION status, the initiator must collect the error information

 

 

using the REQUEST SENSE command. The RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC

 

 

RESULTS command cannot read out the error information detected in

 

 

the self-diagnostics.

 

 

Caution

 

 

1. To avoid injury, do not touch the mechanical assembly during disk

6-5

 

drive operation.

 

 

2. Do not use solvents to clean the disk drive.
