Device Overview

1.1 Features

1.1.1 Functions and performance

The following features of the disk drive are described.

(1) Compact

The disk drive has up to 2 disks of 65 mm (2.5 inches) diameter, and its height is

9.5mm (0.374 inch).

(2)Environmental Protection

The disk drive comply with the RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment) directive issued by European Union (EU).

(3) Large capacity

The disk drive can record up to 60 GB (formatted) on one disk using the RLL recording method and 30 recording zone technology. The disk drive has a formatted capacity of 120 GB (MHW2120BS), 100 GB (MHW2100BS), 80 GB (MHW2080BS), 60 GB (MHW2060BS) and 40 GB (MHW2040BS) respectively.

(4) High-speed Transfer rate

The disk drive (the MHW2xxxBS Series) has an internal data rate up to

61.3MB/s. The disk drive supports an external data rate 1.5Gbps (150MB/s) (Serial-ATA Generation-1). And the disk drive realizes a high performance by high-speed transfer rate combined with Native Command Queuing (NCQ).

(5)Average positioning time

Use of a rotary voice coil motor in the head positioning mechanism greatly increases the positioning speed. The average positioning time is 12 ms (at read).

1.1.2 Adaptability

(1) Power save mode

The disk drive is ideal for applications since it supports the power save mode function that works in each of the Idle, Standby, and Sleep modes and has the Partial and Slumber interface power management functions. And automatically power down by APM function makes the disk drive ideal for mobile use where power consumption is a factor.

(2) Temperature range

The disk drive can be used temperature range (5 °C to 60°C at DE surface). (For details of the reliability for each temperature range, refer to the Section 1.7, "Reliability.")
