1.1 Features
1.1.1 Functions and performance
The following features of the MHN Series are described.
(1) Compact
The MHN2300AT, MHN2200AT, MHN2150AT and MHN2100AT have 1 disk
or 2 disks of 65 mm (2.5 inches) diameter, and its height is 9.5 mm (0.374 inch).
(2) Large capacity
The disk drive can record up to 15 GB (formatted) on one disk using the 16/17
MTR recording method and 15 recording zone technology. The MHN Series has
a formatted capacity of 30 GB (MHN2300AT), 20 GB (MHN2200AT), 15 GB
(MHN2150AT) and 10 GB (MHN2100AT) respectively.
(3) High-speed Transfer rate
The disk drives (the MHN Series) have an internal data rate up to 30.7 MB/s. The
disk drive supports an external data rate up to 100 MB/s (U-DMA mode 5).
(4) Average positioning time
Use of a rotary voice coil motor in the head positioning mechanism greatly
increases the positioning speed. The average positioning time is 12 ms (at read).
1.1.2 Adaptability
(1) Power save mode
The power save mode feature for idle operation, stand by and sleep modes makes
The disk drives (the MHN Series) ideal for applications where power
consumption is a factor.
(2) Wide temperature range
The disk drives (the MHN Series) can be used over a wide temperature range
(5°C to 55°C).
(3) Low noise and vibration
In Ready status, the noise of the disk drives (the MHN Series) is only about 24
dBA (measured at 1 m apart from the drive under the idle mode).
(4) High resistance against shock
The Load/Unload mechanism is highly resistant against non-operation shock up
to 7840 m/s
2
(800G).
