2.14 Agency certification
2.14.1 Safety certification
These products are certified to meet the requirements of UL60950-1, CSA60950-1 and EN60950 and so marked as to the
certify agency.
2.14.2 Electromagnetic compatibility
Hard drives that display the CE mark comply with the European Union (EU) requirements specified in the Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive 2004/108/EC (Until 19th April, 2016) and 2014/30/EU (From 20th April, 2016). Testing is performed
to the levels specified by the product standards for Information Technology Equipment (ITE). Emission levels are defined
by EN 55022, Class B and the immunity levels are defined by EN 55024.
Drives are tested in representative end-user systems. Although CE-marked drives comply with the directives when used in
the test systems, we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply with the directives. The drive is designed for operation
inside a properly designed enclosure, with properly shielded I/O cable (if necessary) and terminators on all unused I/O
ports. Computer manufacturers and system integrators should confirm EMC compliance and provide CE marking for their
products.
Korean RRA
If these drives have the Korean Communications Commission (KCC) logo, they comply with paragraph 1 of Article 11 of the
Electromagnetic Compatibility control Regulation and meet the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework
requirements of the Radio Research Agency (RRA) Communications Commission, Republic of Korea.
These drives have been tested and comply with the Electromagnetic Interference/Electromagnetic Susceptibility (EMI/
EMS) for Class B products. Drives are tested in a representative, end-user system by a Korean-recognized lab.
Australian RCM Compliance Mark
If these models have the RCM marking, they comply with the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS CISPR22: 2009 and
meet the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of the Australian Communication and Media
Authority (ACMA).
2.14.3 FCC verification
These drives are intended to be contained solely within a personal computer or similar enclosure (not attached as an
external device). As such, each drive is considered to be a subassembly even when it is individually marketed to the
customer. As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission verification or certification of the device is required.
Seagate has tested this device in enclosures as described above to ensure that the total assembly (enclosure, disk drive,
motherboard, power supply, etc.) does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Subpart J, Part
15 of the FCC rules. Operation with non-certified assemblies is likely to result in interference to radio and television
reception.
Radio and television interference.
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and
used in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception.
This equipment is designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
interference to radio or television, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, users are encouraged to
try one or more of the following corrective measures:
• Reorient the receiving antenna.
• Move the device to one side or the other of the radio or TV.
• Move the device farther away from the radio or TV.
• Plug the computer into a different outlet so that the receiver and computer are on different branch outlets.
If necessary, users should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.
Users may find helpful the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission: How to Identify and
Resolve Radio-Television Interference Problems. This booklet is available from the Superintendent of Documents,
U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Refer to publication number 004-000-00345-4.
