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.

7.8Power 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 6.2 for power requirements on the standard (non-SED) drive models.

7.9Supported 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 19:

•Security Protocol Out (B5h)

•Security Protocol In (A2h)
