Configuring and Mounting 3.0 Configuring and Mounting the Drive This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive. 3.1 Handling and Static-Discharge Precautions After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions. CAUTION 3.
3.3 Drive Mounting Users can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom-mounting holes. Refer to Figure 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when mounting the drive: Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (0.76 mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling. Use only M3 x 0.5 mounting screws. Do not overtighten the mounting screws. Maximum torque: 4.0 in-lb (0.4519 N-m).

About FIPS 4.0 About FIPS The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2, FIPS PUB 140-2, is a U.S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. It is titled “Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules”. The initial publication was on May 25, 2001 and was last updated December 3, 2002. Purpose.
About (SED) Self-Encrypting 5.0 About (SED) Self-Encrypting Drives Self-encrypting drives (SEDs) offer encryption and security services for the protection of stored data, commonly known as "protection of data at rest." These drives are compliant with the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Opal Storage Specifications as detailed in the following: Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Documents (apply to Self-Encrypting Drive models only) TCG Storage Architecture Core Specification, Version 2.
About (SED) Self-Encrypting 5.3 Random Number Generator (RNG) The drive has a 32-byte hardware RNG that it is uses to derive encryption keys or, if requested to do so, to provide random numbers to the host for system use, including using these numbers as Authentication Keys (passwords) for the drive's Admin and Locking SPs. 5.4 Drive Locking In addition to changing the passwords, as described in Section 5.2.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface 6.0 Serial ATA (SATA) Interface These drives use the industry-standard Serial ATA interface that supports FIS data transfers. It supports ATA programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; multiword DMA modes 0–2, and Ultra DMA modes 0–6. The drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers. For detailed information about the Serial ATA interface, refer to the Serial ATA: High Speed Serialized AT Attachment specification. 6.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface 6.3 Supported ATA Commands Table 11: lists Serial ATA standard commands that the drive supports. For a detailed description of the ATA commands, refer to the Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA (Revision 2.6). Refer to www.sata-io.org. Refer to S.M.A.R.T. commands on page 34 for details and subcommands used in the S.M.A.R.T. implementation.

Serial ATA (SATA) Interface 6.3.1 Identify Device command The Identify Device command (command code ECH) transfers information about the drive to the host following power up. The data is organized as a single 512-byte block of data, whose contents are shown in Table 12:. All reserved bits or words should be set to zero. Parameters listed with an “x” are drive-specific or vary with the state of the drive. Refer to Drive Specifications on page 8 for default parameter settings.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface Table 12: Identify Device command Word Description Value 60–61 Total number of user-addressable sectors This field contains a value that is one greater than the total number of user-addressable sectors. The maximum value that shall be placed in this field is 0FFFFFFFh. The 0FFFFFFFh value applies to all capacities over 137GB (see Section 2.1, Formatted Capacity for related information).

Maximum value: 0000FFFFFFFFFFFFh.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface Table 13: Bit Descriptions Description (if bit is set to 1) Bit Word 63 0 Multiword DMA mode 0 is supported. 1 Multiword DMA mode 1 is supported. 2 Multiword DMA mode 2 is supported. 8 Multiword DMA mode 0 is currently active. 9 Multiword DMA mode 1 is currently active. 10 Multiword DMA mode 2 is currently active. Bit Word 88 0 Ultra DMA mode 0 is supported. 1 Ultra DMA mode 1 is supported. 2 Ultra DMA mode 2 is supported. 3 Ultra DMA mode 3 is supported.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface 6.3.2 Set Features command This command controls the implementation of various features that the drive supports. When the drive receives this command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the register does not represent a feature that the drive supports, the command is aborted. Power-on default has the read look-ahead and write caching features enabled.
Serial ATA (SATA) Interface 6.3.3 S.M.A.R.T. commands S.M.A.R.T. provides near-term failure prediction for disk drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive monitors predetermined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If self-monitoring determines that a failure is likely, S.M.A.R.T. makes a status report available to the host. Not all failures are predictable. S.M.A.R.T. predictability is limited to the attributes the drive can monitor. For more information on S.M.A.R.T.
