2.9 Acoustics
Drive acoustics are measured as overall A-weighted acoustic sound power levels (no pure tones). 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.
*During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and
power to operational levels .
2.9.1 Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs)
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process is the
use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses this threshold curve (originated in ISO 389-7) to discern tone
audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios according to
Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.
2.10 Electromagnetic immunity
When properly installed in a representative host system, the drive operates without errors or degradation in performance
when subjected to the radio frequency (RF) environments defined in
Table 4
.
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 l average access time
