1.1.1 Performance
(1) Half-height standard 90mm(3.5-inch) size (25.4 mm height)
The ATAPI controller can be directly connected to the system EIDE bus. The controller meets the
specifications of the standard 25.4 mm height 90mm(3.5-inch) fixed disk drive form factor.
(2) High-speed data transfer
The speed of the MCE3130AP disk medium is 3,214 rpm when a 1.3 GB disk medium is used.
When other media are used, the speed is 4,558 revolutions per minute.
The speed of the MCE3064AP disk medium is 3600 revolutions per minute.
In the disk unit, high-speed data transfers at rates of 3.46 to 5.92 MB/s (1.3 GB) are realized. The
data transfer rate on the EIDE bus is 16.6 MB/s in PIO mode 4 and 16.6 MB/s in Multi-word
DMA Mode 2.
The EIDE bus high-speed data transfer capacity can be used effectively through the optical disk
unit’s large capacity data buffer (with read-ahead cache).
(3) High-speed mean seek time
This drive features a linear voice-coil motor for high-speed head positioning. The average seek
time is the average of 1,000 random seeks and is 23 ms. (However, this does not include command
overhead or address check.)
(4) Compatible with international standards (media interchangeability)
90mm(3.5 inch) type 1.3 GB format optical disks as well as ISO standards compatible 128 MB,
230 MB, 540 MB and 640 MB format optical disk media can be used in the MCE3130AP Optical
Disk Unit.
ISO standards compatible 128 MB, 230 MB, 540 MB and 640 MB format optical disks can be
used in the MCE3064AP and MCF3064AP optical disk units.
(5) Direct-overwrite medium support
The drive can use an optic modulation direct-overwrite disk that does not read an erase operation;
230-MB disk, 540-MB disk with the ISO standard.
(6) Dust resistance
The optical disk drive needs class 5 millions or less of the dust particles.
(7) Lower power consumption
The power consumption of the MCE3130AP optical disk drive is 5.5 W and that of the
MCE3064AP, and MCF3064AF optical disk drives is 5.3 W. (These power consumption values
are typical values during read and write operation.) These drives do not use a fan.
The minimum power consumption is 0.65 W during power save.
