2.0APPLICABLE STANDARDS AND REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION

The drives documented in this manual have been developed as system peripherals to the highest standards of design and construction. The drives depend on host equipment to provide adequate power and environment for optimum performance and compliance with applicable industry and governmental regulations. Special attention must be given in the areas of safety, power distribution, shielding, audible noise control, and temperature regulation. In particular, the drives must be securely mounted to guarantee the specified performance characteristics. Mounting by bottom holes must meet the requirements of Section 10.3.

2.1STANDARDS

The Pulsar.2 family complies with Seagate standards as noted in the appropriate sections of this manual and the Seagate SAS Interface Manual, part number 100293071.

The drives are recognized in accordance with UL 60950 and CSA 60950 as tested by UL(CSA) and EN60950 as tested by TUV.

The security features of Self-Encrypting Drive models are based on the “TCG Storage Architecture Core Specification” and the “TCG Storage Workgroup Security Subsystem Class: Enterprise_A” specification with additional vendor-unique features as noted in this product manual.

2.1.1Electromagnetic compatibility

The drive, as delivered, is designed for system integration and installation into a suitable enclosure prior to use. The drive is supplied as a subassembly and is not subject to Subpart B of Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations nor the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

The design characteristics of the drive serve to minimize radiation when installed in an enclosure that provides reasonable shielding. The drive is capable of meeting the Class B limits of the FCC Rules and Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications when properly packaged; however, it is the user’s responsibility to assure that the drive meets the appropriate EMI requirements in their system. Shielded I/O cables may be required if the enclosure does not provide adequate shielding. If the I/O cables are external to the enclosure, shielded cables should be used, with the shields grounded to the enclosure and to the host controller.

2.1.1.1Electromagnetic susceptibility

As a component assembly, the drive is not required to meet any susceptibility performance requirements. It is the responsibility of those integrating the drive within their systems to perform those tests required and design their system to ensure that equipment operating in the same system as the drive or external to the system does not adversely affect the performance of the drive. See Tables 10 through 12, DC power requirements.

ST800FM0002, ST100FM0002, ST200FM0002, ST400FM0012, ST800FM0032 specifications

The Seagate ST100FM0012, ST800FM0012, ST400FM0042, ST400FM0002, and ST100FM0052 are high-performance hard drives designed for enterprise applications, offering advanced features and reliability for demanding workloads.

The ST100FM0012 is a 10TB hard drive that strikes a balance between capacity and performance. It utilizes a 7200 RPM spindle speed and features a 256MB cache, enabling efficient data access and enhanced read/write performance. With Seagate’s AgileArray technology, the ST100FM0012 is optimized for NAS environments, providing multi-drive reliability and error recovery.

The ST800FM0012 is an 8TB variant that shares many features with its 10TB counterpart but is tailored for organizations needing robust storage without reaching the highest tier of capacity. Its dual-plane rotational vibration technology minimizes vibration in multi-drive systems, ensuring sustained performance over prolonged use. This makes it an excellent choice for virtualization and data-intensive applications.

The ST400FM0042 offers a 4TB capacity suited for smaller enterprise needs or as a backup solution. With an impressive performance profile, including a 7200 RPM speed and 128MB cache, it accommodates both sequential and random workloads with ease. This drive stands out with its PowerChoice technology, allowing users to manage power consumption and reduce operational costs.

Another 4TB option, the ST400FM0002, is particularly designed for hybrid configurations, pairing the fast access of the hard drive with the speed of SSDs. It features Seagate's advanced thermal management technologies, ensuring optimal operating temperatures and performance stability during intensive workloads.

The ST100FM0052 rounds out the lineup with a 10TB capacity but is specifically aimed at surveillance applications. It supports a workload rate of 180TB per year, making it ideal for always-on recording scenarios. The drive is built with optimized firmware, which ensures enhanced performance in write-intensive environments, essential for video recording and security systems.

All these drives are equipped with Seagate’s proprietary technologies, including data recovery services and built-in data protection features, ensuring data integrity and security. The drives are built for durability, reliability, and high performance in mission-critical environments, making them indispensable components of modern enterprise data storage solutions. With capacities ranging from 4TB to 10TB, they cater to varying storage needs across different sectors.
