INSTALLATION

4.3.2 Ventilation

The Spinpoint M8 hard disk drive is designed to operate without the need of a cooling fan provided the

ambient air te mperature does not exceed 60ºC. Any user-design ed cabinet must provide adequate air

circulation to prevent exceeding the maximum temperature.

4.4 Cable Connectors

The Interface/Power connector consists of two cables; a SATA 15-pin DC power connector, and the

standard SATA 7-pin Interface connector.

4.4.1 SATA Connectivity

The SATA interface is connected within a point to point configuration with the SATA host port. There is

no master or s lave relationship within the devices. Thus SATA does not require master/slave jumper. The

drive interface section of the host adapter employs a new design which processed data into a serial data-

control system.

Figure 4.4 illustrates the connection for the S ATA.

There are two cables for SATA drives. One is for data transmission. The other is for power. Figure 4-4

illustrates (a) device signal plug connector, (b) device power plug connector, (c) signal cable receptacle

connector mating with (a), and (d) power cable receptacle connector to be mated with (b). For more

information, please refer to SATA Specifications cited in the reference.
