1.1 Features

1.1.2 Reliability

(1) Mean time between failures (MTBF)

The mean time between failures (MTBF) for this optical disk drive is 120,000 hours or more.

(2) Enhanced error recovery

If an error occurs on the optical disk drive, the system executes appropriate retry processing to recover from it. This drive features enhanced Reed-Solomon error correction code (ECC) to assure error-free operation.

(3) Automatic allocation of alternate data blocks

This drive features a function which automatically allocates alternate data blocks in cases where defective data blocks are detected while data is being written to an optical disk.

1.1.3 Maintainability/operability

(1) Diagnostics function

This drive has a diagnostics function for checking optical disk drive operations. The diagnostics function facilitates test and restoration.

(2) Five-year service life (no overhaul)

This drive will not require overhaul within the first five years of installation if appropriately maintained (both disks and optical parts cleaned using cleaning tools) and handled as recommended.

1.1.4 Adaptability

(1) Wide-ranging operating environments

This drive, requiring low power consumption because of LSIs adopted, can be used in wide-ranging environments (5 to 45°C for drive's ambient environment and a general office environment). The ambient cleanliness must be class 5 million or less particle level.

(2) Low noise

This drive operates quietly at 30 dB or less (A-character) during seek operations and will not degrade the office environment (except when an optical disk is ejected).
