2.1.2 Electromagnetic compliance
Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance with the directives/standards for CE Marking and C-Tick
Marking. The drive was tested in a representative system for typical applications. The selected system represents the most
popular characteristics for test platforms. The system configurations include:
• Typical current use microprocessor
• Keyboard
• Monitor/display
• Printer
• Mouse
Although the test system with this Seagate model complies with the directives/standards, we cannot guarantee that all
systems will comply. The computer manufacturer or system integrator shall confirm EMC compliance and provide the
appropriate marking for their product.

2.2 EUROPEAN UNION RESTRICTION OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES (ROHS)
The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive restricts the presence of chemical substances,
including Lead (Pb), in electronic products effective July 2006.
A number of parts and materials in Seagate products are procured from external suppliers. We rely on the representations of
our suppliers regarding the presence of RoHS substances in these parts and materials. Our supplier contracts require
compliance with our chemical substance restrictions, and our suppliers document their compliance with our requirements by
providing material content declarations for all parts and materials for the disk drives documented in this publication. Current
supplier declarations include disclosure of the inclusion of any RoHS-regulated substance in such parts or materials.
Seagate also has internal systems in place to ensure ongoing compliance with the RoHS Directive and all laws and
regulations which restrict chemical content in electronic products. These systems include standard operating procedures that
ensure that restricted substances are not utilized in our manufacturing operations, laboratory analytical validation testing,
and an internal auditing process to ensure that all standard operating procedures are complied with.
