One GB equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and formatting.
*
See
for rated MTBF device operating condition requirements.
†
Seagate does not recommend operating at sustained extreme temperatures.
Operating at higher temperatures will reduce useful life of the product.
2.2
Formatted capacity
*
One GB equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and formatting.
2.2.1
LBA mode
When addressing these drives in LBA mode, all blocks (sectors) are consecutively numbered from 0 to
n–1,
where
n
is
the number of
guaranteed sectors as defined above
.
See
Section 4.3.1, "Identify Device command"
(words 60-61 and 100-103) for additional information about 48-bit addressing
support of drives with capacities over 137GB.
Altitude, nonoperating
(below mean sea level, max)
–304.8 m to 12,192 m
(–1000 ft to 40,000+ ft)
Operational Shock (max at 2 ms - typical)
Read 70 Gs / Write 40 Gs
Non-Operational Shock (max at 2 ms - typical)
300 Gs
Vibration, operating
5–22 Hz: 0.25 Gs, Limited displacement
22–350 Hz: 0.50 Gs
350–500 Hz: 0.25 Gs
Operation Rotational vibration
20–1500Hz: 12.5 rads/s²
Vibration, nonoperating
10–500 Hz: 5.0 Grms ref
Drive acoustics, sound power (bels)
Idle
2.8 (typical)
3.0 (max)
During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the
SMART specification, which may increase acoustic and power to operational levels
.

Annualized Failure Rate (AFR)
0.44% based on 8760 POH
Maximum Rated Workload
Maximum rate of <550TB/year
Workloads exceeding the annualized rate may degrade the drive MTBF and impact product
reliability. The Annualized Workload Rate is in units of TB per year, or TB per 8760 power on
hours. Workload Rate = TB transferred * (8760 / recorded power on hours).
