*During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and power
to operational levels.
Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs)
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process
is the use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses the lower limit for the threshold curve* to discern tone
audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios according to
Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.
*Defined as the median curve given by ISO 389-7 (Tf curve) minus 10dB at all frequencies.
2.12 Electromagnetic immunity
When properly installed in a representative host system, the drive operates without errors or degradation in perfor-
mance when subjected to the radio frequency (RF) environments defined in the following table:
