Medalist Pro 6450/6451 Product Manual, Rev. B

1.18Electromagnetic Compliance for the European Union

If this model has the CE Marking, it complies with the European Union requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC of 03 May 1989 as amended by Directive 92/31/EEC of 28 April 1992 and Directive 93/68/EEC of 22 July 1993.

Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance to the above directives. The drive was tested in a representative system for typical applications. The selected system represents the most popular characteristics for test platforms. The system configurations include:

486, Pentium, and PowerPC microprocessors

3.5-inch floppy disc drives

Keyboard

Monitor/display

Although the test system with this Seagate model complies to the directives, we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply. The com- puter manufacturer or system integrator shall confirm EMC compliance and provide CE Marking for their product. The drive is not meant for external use (without properly designed enclosure, shielded I/O cable, etc.) and that a terminator should be used on all unused I/O ports.

1.19 FCC verification

The Medalist Pro ATA interface drives are intended to be contained solely within a personal computer or similar enclosure (not attached to an external device). As such, a drive is considered to be a subassembly even when individually marketed to the customer. As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission authorization, verification or cer- tification of the device is required.

Seagate Technology, Inc. has tested these drives in an enclosure as described above to ensure that the total assembly (enclosure, disc drives, motherboard, power supply, etc.) does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation with noncertified assemblies is likely to result in interfer- ence to radio and television reception.

Radio and television interference. This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception.

This equipment is designed to provide reasonable protection against
