Regulatory agency compliance

Electromagnetic 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 sys- tem does not adversely affect the performance of the drive. See DC power requirements on page 17.

Electromagnetic compliance

Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance to the directives/standard(s) for CE Marking and C-Tick Marking. The drive was tested in a representative system for typical appli- cations. The selected system represents the most popular char- acteristics for test platforms. The system configurations include:

•486, Pentium, and PowerPC microprocessors

•3.5-inch floppy disc drive

•Keyboard

•Monitor/display

•Printer

•External modem

•Mouse

Although the test system with this Seagate model complies to the directives/standard(s), we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply. The computer manufacturer or system integrator shall confirm EMC compliance and provide CE Marking and C- Tick Marking for their product.
