Seagate 1680 Computer Drive User Manual


 
1.8.6.2 Nonoperating vibration
The following table lists the maximum nonoperating vibration that the
drive may experience without incurring physical damage or degradation
in performance.
5–22 Hz 0.2-inch displacement (peak-to-peak)
22–400 Hz 4 Gs acceleration (0 to peak)
400–22 Hz 4 Gs acceleration (0 to peak)
22–5 Hz 0.2-inch displacement (peak-to-peak)
1.9 Drive acoustics
Drive acoustics are measured as sound power, using techniques that are
generally consistent with ISO document 7779. Measurements are taken
under essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane, using a total
of nine microphones that measure in the 250–4,000 Hz band. This method-
ology determines broad-band and narrow-band noise, and discrete fre-
quency components. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing
upward.
Mode Typical Maximum
Idle (sound power-bels) 3.5 3.8
