To obtain operating power for typical random read operations, refer to the following I/O rate curve (see Figure
). Locate the typical I/O rate
for a drive in the system on the horizontal axis and read the corresp5 volt current, +12 volt current, and total watts on the vertical
axis. To calculate BTUs per hour, multiply watts by 3.4123.

1800GB models in 12Gb operation
To obtain operating power for typical random read operations, refer to the following I/O rate curve (see Figure
). Locate the typical I/O rate
for a drive in the system on the horizontal axis and read the corresp5 volt current, +12 volt current, and total watts on the vertical
axis. To calculate BTUs per hour, multiply watts by 3.4123.
