1.14 Shock and vibration

All shock and vibration specifications apply when the drive is mounted as recommended in Section 2.5 on page 22, with the input levels measured at the drive mounting screws. Shock measurements are based on an 11 msec, half sine wave shock pulse, not to be repeated more than twice per second.

During normal operating shock and vibration, there is no physical dam- age to the drive or performance degradation. During nonoperating shock and vibration, the read/write heads are positioned in the landing zone.

During abnormal operating shock and vibration, there is no physical damage to the drive, although performance may be degraded during the shock or vibration episode. When normal operating shock levels resume, the drive meets its performance specifications.
