6.4.3 Effective altitude (sea level)
a. Operating
-1000 to +10,000 feet (-305 to +3048 metres)
b. Non-Operating
-1000 to +40,000 feet (-305 to +12,210 metres)
6.4.4 Shock and vibration
Shock and vibration limits specified in this document are measured directly on the drive chassis. If the drive is
installed in an enclosure to which the stated shock and/or vibration criteria is applied, resonances may occur
internally to the enclosure resulting in drive movement in excess of the stated limits. If this situation is appar-
ent, it may be necessary to modify the enclosure to minimize drive movement.
The limits of shock and vibration defined within this document are specified with the drive mounted by any of
the four methods shown in Figure 5, and in accordance with the restrictions of Section 8.4. Orientation of the
side nearest the LED may be up or down.
6.4.4.1 Shock
a. Operating
The drive, as installed for normal operation, shall operate error free while subjected to intermittent shock
not exceeding 10 g’s at a maximum duration of 11 ms (half sinewave). Shock may be applied in the X, Y, or
Z axis.
b. Non-operating
The limits of nonoperating shock shall apply to all conditions of handling and transportation. This includes
both isolated drives and integrated drives.
The drive subjected to nonrepetitive shock not exceeding 75 g’s at a maximum duration of 11 ms (half sine-
wave) shall not exhibit device damage or performance degradation. Shock may be applied in the X, Y, or Z
axis.
c. Packaged
Disc drives shipped as loose load (not palletized) general freight will be packaged to withstand drops from
heights as defined in the table below. For additional details refer to specifications 30190-001 (under 100
lbs) or 30191-001 (over 100 lbs).
