3.5-Inch Fibre Channel Solid State Drive Product Manual Rev. 1.0
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
POWER SUPPLY
The following voltage specification applies to the drive power connector. Connections to the drive
should be made in a safety extra low voltage (SELV) circuit.
The drive does not use the +5V supply input pins available on a typical 40-Pin SCA-2 connector.
The drive uses the +12V supply input. The 5V ground pins are connected to the common ground
plane within the unit.
Adequate secondary over-current protection must be incorporated in the host system (drive
enclosure, backplane, etc.). A 10 amp limit is required for safety purposes.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
The Zeus
IOPS
3.5-inch Fibre Channel SSD requires a 12V +/-10% DC power source. If a power
failure occurs, the drive design ensures that the data contained in the storage memory is preserved.
Data loss or corruption does not occur.
