14 Medalist 17242, 13032, 10232, 8422 and 4312, Rev. A
1.11 Reliability
1.12 Agency certification
1.12.1 Safety certification
The drives are recognized in accordance with UL 1950 and CSA C22.2
(950) and meet all applicable sections of IEC950 and EN 60950 as tested
by TUV North America.
1.12.2 Electromagnetic Compatibility
Hard drives that display the CE marking comply with European Union
requirements specified in Electromagnetic Compatibility Directives.
Testing is performed to standards EN50082-1 and EN55022-B.
Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance with the
EC directives specified in the previous paragraph. Drives are tested in
representative end-user systems. Although CE-marked Seagate drives
comply with the directives when used in the test systems, we cannot
guarantee that all systems will comply with the directives. The drive is
designed for operation inside a properly designed enclosure, with prop-
erly shielded I/O cable (if necessary) and terminators on all unused I/O
ports. Computer manufacturers and system integrators should confirm
EMC compliance and provide CE marking for their products.
Australian C-Tick
If these models have the C-Tick marking, they comply with the Australia/
New Zealand Standard AS/NZS3548 1995 and meet the Electromag-
netic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of Australia’s Spec-
trum Management Agency (SMA).
