1.The download must be an SED file. A standard (base) drive (non-SED) file will be rejected.

2.The download file must be signed and authenticated.

3.As with a non-SED drive, the download file must pass the acceptance criteria for the drive. For example it must be applicable to the correct drive model, and have compatible revision and customer status.

9.8Power requirements

The standard drive models and the SED drive models have identical hardware, however the security and encryption portion of the drive controller ASIC is enabled and functional in the SED models. This represents a small additional drain on the 5V supply of about 30mA and a commensurate increase of about 150mW in power consumption. There is no additional drain on the 12V supply. See the tables in Section 7.3 for power requirements on the standard (non-SED) drive models.

9.9Supported commands

The SED models support the following two commands in addition to the commands supported by the standard (non-SED) models as listed in Table 8:

•Security Protocol Out (B5h)

•Security Protocol In (A2h)

9.10Sanitize - CRYPTOGRAPHIC ERASE

This command cryptographically erases all user data on the drive by destroying the current data encryption key and replacing it with a new data encryption key randomly generated by the drive. Sanitize CRYPTOGRAPHIC ERASE is a SCSI CDB Op code 48h and selecting the service action code 3 (CRYPTOGRAPHIC ERASE)

9.11RevertSP

The SED models will support RevertSP feature where it erases all data in all bands on the device and returns the contents of all SPs (Security Providers) on the device to their original factory state. In order to execute the RevertSP method the unique PSID (Physical Secure ID) printed on the drive label must be provided. PSID is not electronically accessible and can only be manually read from the drive label or scanned in via the 2D bar- code.

ST2000NM0001, ST1000NM0041, ST500NM0001, ST2000NM0021, ST1000NM0021 specifications

Seagate is a renowned leader in data storage solutions, offering a wide array of hard disk drives (HDDs) suitable for various applications. Among their product lineup, the Seagate ST2000NM0041, ST500NM0021, ST500NM0041, ST1000NM0001, and ST1000NM0021 stand out as reliable options tailored for enterprise environments and general storage needs.

The Seagate ST2000NM0041 is a 2TB 7200 RPM drive designed for high-performance workloads in data centers. One of its key features is the use of the SATA III interface, providing data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps, ensuring quick access to data. This model supports advanced error recovery controls and features enhanced power management capabilities, which contribute to its reliable performance and energy efficiency.

Next, the ST500NM0021 and ST500NM0041 are both 500GB drives that cater to different consumer needs. The ST500NM0021 is a 5400 RPM drive, typically used in scenarios where lower power consumption is vital, such as in compact systems or external storage configurations. Its efficient design enables quieter operation, making it ideal for environments that require minimal noise. Conversely, the ST500NM0041 operates at a speed of 7200 RPM, making it suitable for more demanding applications that require swift read and write speeds. Both models utilize Serial ATA for connectivity, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of systems.

The ST1000NM0001 and ST1000NM0021 are 1TB drives that provide versatility across different platforms. Similar to their 500GB counterparts, the ST1000NM0001 features a 7200 RPM speed, optimizing performance for applications requiring faster data processing. In contrast, the ST1000NM0021 operates at 5400 RPM, designed for users prioritizing energy efficiency over speed, like in desktop and external storage solutions. Each of these drives supports advanced technologies such as Native Command Queuing (NCQ), which enhances performance by allowing multiple commands to be executed simultaneously.

Overall, the Seagate ST series hard drives offer flexible storage options for a variety of applications. With their robust features, including varied RPM speeds, power management, and compatibility with SATA connections, these drives cater to the needs of both consumer and enterprise markets, establishing Seagate as a trusted provider in the storage arena.
