Bit

Meaning

 

 

0

If this bit is 1, it indicates normal operations are assured with the

 

attribute when the attribute value exceeds the threshold value.

1

If this bit is 1 (0), it indicates the attribute only updated by an on-

 

line test (off-line test).

2

If this bit 1, it indicates the attribute that represents performance.

 

 

3

If this bit 1, it indicates the attribute that represents an error rate.

 

 

4

If this bit 1, it indicates the attribute that represents the number of

 

occurrences.

5

If this bit 1, it indicates the attribute that can be collected/saved

 

even if the drive fault prediction function is disabled.

6 to 15

Reserve bit

Current attribute value

It indicates the normalized value of the original attribute value. The value deviates in a range of 01h to 64h (range of 01h to C8h for the ultra ATA CRC error rate). It indicates that the closer the value is to 01h, the higher the possibility of a failure. The host compares the attribute value with the threshold value. If the attribute value is larger than the threshold value, the drive is determined to be normal.

Attribute value for the worst case so far

This is the worst attribute value among the attribute values collected to date. This value indicates the state nearest to a failure so far.

Raw attribute value

Raw attributes data is retained.

MHW2060AC, MHW2040AC specifications

The Fujitsu MHW2040AC and MHW2060AC are notable hard disk drives (HDDs) that have been widely used in various computing applications, especially in laptops and compact devices. These models are part of Fujitsu's commitment to providing reliable storage solutions that meet the demands of modern computing.

The MHW2040AC offers a storage capacity of 40 GB, while the MHW2060AC provides a slightly larger capacity at 60 GB. This range of storage makes both models suitable for users looking for dependable space for documents, multimedia files, and software applications. Both drives utilize a 2.5-inch form factor, ideal for mobile computing, as they are lightweight and designed to fit into space-constrained environments.

In terms of performance, both drives operate at a spindle speed of 5400 RPM. This speed strikes a balance between power consumption and performance, making these drives an efficient choice for everyday tasks, such as web browsing and office applications. The drives are equipped with an interface of Ultra ATA/133, which enables faster data transfer rates compared to older models, thereby enhancing overall system responsiveness.

The MHW2040AC and MHW2060AC also incorporate several advanced technologies to bolster their performance and reliability. One such feature is the use of a fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) for the spindle motor, which minimizes noise and vibration, thus improving the overall user experience. Additionally, both drives come with error correction technology that helps maintain data integrity by detecting and correcting errors during read and write operations.

Moreover, these HDDs feature a shock sensor that can detect sudden movements, allowing the drive to park its heads to prevent data loss and hardware damage. This is particularly beneficial in mobile environments where the risks of impact are higher.

Both the MHW2040AC and MHW2060AC are designed with energy-saving features, making them an environmentally responsible choice for energy-conscious consumers. Their low power consumption not only contributes to a reduced carbon footprint but also extends battery life for portable devices.

In summary, the Fujitsu MHW2040AC and MHW2060AC are reliable, efficient, and user-friendly hard disk drives that combine moderate capacities with advanced features designed to enhance performance, ensure data integrity, and extend device longevity. These drives are well-suited for a range of applications, making them a solid choice for users seeking dependable storage solutions.
