2.9Acoustics

Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). Discrete tone penalties are added to the A-weighted sound power (LW) with the following formula only when determin- ing compliance:

LWt(spec) == LW + 0.1Pt + 0.3 < 4.0 (Bels) where

LW = A-weighted sound power level

pt == Value of discrete tone penalty [==dLt-6.0 (dBA)]

dLt = Tone-to-noise ratio taken in accordance with ISO 7779.

All measurements are consistent with ISO document 7779. Sound power measurements are taken under essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.

Note. For seek mode tests, the drive is placed in seek mode only. The number of seeks per second is defined by the following equation:

(Number of seeks per second = 0.4 / (average latency + average access time)
