(4) Data assurance in the event of power failure

Except for the data block being written to, the data on the disk media is assured in the event of any power supply abnormalities. This does not include power supply abnormalities during disk media initialization (formatting) or processing of defects (alternative block assignment).

1.8 Error Rate

Known defects, for w0hich alternative blocks can be assigned, are not included in the error rate count below. It is assumed that the data blocks to be accessed are evenly distributed on the disk media.

(1) Unrecoverable read error

Read errors that cannot be recovered by maximum read retries of drive without user's retry and ECC corrections shall occur no more than 1 time when reading data of 1014 bits. Read retries are executed according to the disk drive's error recovery procedure, and include read retries accompanying head offset operations.

(2) Positioning error

Positioning (seek) errors that can be recovered by one retry shall occur no more than 1 time in 107 seek operations.

1.9 Media Defects

Defective sectors are replaced with alternates when the disk drive is formatted prior to shipment from the factory (low level format). Thus, the hosts see a defect- free device.

Alternate sectors are automatically accessed by the disk drive. The user need not be concerned with access to alternate sectors.
