CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.1 Standard Features 1.2 Hardware Structure 1.3 System Configuration This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the intelligent disk drives (IDD). IDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5-inch fixed disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller. The interface between the IDD and host system is based on SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) standard [ANSI X3.131 - 1986: Small Computer System Interface (SCSI), ANSI X3.131-1994: Small Computer System

1.1 Standard Features (1) Compactness Since the SCSI controller circuit is embedded in the standard 3.5-inch fixed disk drive form factor, the IDD is extremely compact. The IDD can be connected directly to the SCSI bus of the host system . (2) SCSI/CCS standard The IDD provides not only SCSI basic functions but also the following features: • Arbitration • Disconnection/reselection • Data bus parity • Command set which meets the logical specification of the SCSI CCS (Common Command Set for Direc

Note: The maximum data transfer rate in asynchronous mode may be limited by the response time of initiator and the length of SCSI bus length. The maximum data transfer rate in synchronous mode on the single-ended SCSI bus may be limited by the cable length, transmission characteristics of the SCSI bus and the connected SCSI device number. (5) Continuous block processing The addressing method of data blocks is logical block address. The initiator can access data by specifying block number in a

(10) Error recovery The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus or the disk drive using its powerful retry processing. If a recoverable data check occurs, error-free data can be transferred to the initiator after being corrected in the data buffer. The initiator software is released from the complicated error recover processing by these error recovery functions of the IDD. (11) Automatic alternate block reassignment If a defective data block is detected during read, the IDD can automati

(18) Low power consumption By using highly integrated LSI components, the power consumption of the IDD is very low, and this enables the unit to be used in wide range of environmental conditions. (19) Low noise and low vibration Approx. 4.2 bels for the IDD. This makes it ideal for office use. The IDD has rubber vibration isolators, which minimize the transfer of vibration. (20) Microcode downloading The IDD implements the microcode download feature. This feature achieves easy maintainability
