Important Alert Items Important Alert Messages The important alert messages in this manual are as follows: A hazardous situation could result in minor or moderate personal injury if the user does not perform the procedure correctly. This alert signal also indicates that damages to the product or other property may occur if the user does not perform the procedure correctly. Task Alert message Page Installation Damage Never remove any labels from the HDD or deface them in any way.

Task Alert message Page Installation High temperature To prevent injury, never touch the HDD while it is hot. The DE and LSI 93 become hot during operation and remain hot immediately after turning off the power. Diagnostics and Data loss Maintenance When the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command terminates with the CHECK 98 CONDITION status, the initiator must collect the error information using the REQUEST SENSE command. The RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command cannot read out the error info

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 MBA3xxxxx. The HDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5-inch hard disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller. The HDDs support the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) as described in the ANSI SCSI SPI-4 [T10/1365D Rev.10] to the extent described in this manual. The flexibility and expandability of the SCS

1.1 Standard Features (1) Compactness Since the SCSI controller circuit is embedded in the standard 3.5-inch hard disk drive form factor, the HDD is extremely compact. The HDD can be connected directly to the SCSI bus of the host system. (2) Environmental Protection The HDDs comply with the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) directive issued by European Union (EU). (3) SCSI standard The HDD provides not only SCSI b

(5) High speed data transfer Such a high data transfer rate on the SCSI bus can be useful with the large capacity buffer in the HDD. • 8-bit SCSI: The data transfer rate on the SCSI bus is 40 MB/s maximum at the synchronous mode. • 16-bit SCSI: The data transfer rate on the SCSI bus is 320 MB/s maximum at the paced transfer synchronous mode. 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

IMPORTANT When Write cache is enabled, you should ensure that the cached data is surely flushed to the disk media before you turn off the HDD's power. To ensure it, you should issue either the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command or the STOP UNIT command with specifying “0” to the Immediate bit and then confirm that the command is surely terminated with the GOOD STATUS. (9) Command queuing feature The HDD can queue maximum 128 commands, and optimizes the issuing order of queued commands by the
