Page 23: Chapter 1 General Description
At present, the permissible limits on the use of certain materials specified by the RoHS directive have not been determined. In such cases, we are using the original criteria set by Fujitsu Limited while referring to the restrictions already established by End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) Directive or by the national environmental laws of the EU member nations. - Page 24 General Description • Arbitration • Disconnection/Reconnection • Data bus parity The SCSI commands can manipulate data through logical block addressing regardless of the physical characteristics of the disk drive. This allows software to accommodate future expansion of system functions. Dual-port support The HDD has two pairs of driver and receiver sets for the Fibre Channel to support dual-port connection.

Page 25: 1.1 Standard Features
When Write Cache is enabled, you should ensure that the cached data is surely flushed to the disk media before you turn off the drive's power. To ensure it, you should issue either the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command or the STOP UNIT command with specifying “0” to the Immediate bit, and then confirm that the command is surely terminated with the GOOD STATUS. - Page 26 General Description (12) Error recovery The HDD can try to recover from errors in Fibre Channel Loop or the disk drive using its powerful retry processing. If a recoverable data check occurs, error-free data can be transferred to the initiator after being corrected in the data buffer.

Page 27: 1.2 Hardware Structure
(19) Diagnosis The HDD has a diagnostic capability which checks internal controller functions and drive operations to facilitate testing and repair. (20) Low power consumption By using highly integrated LSI components, the power consumption of the HDD is very low, and this enables the unit to be used in wide range of environmental conditions. - Page 28 General Description Heads The MR (Magnet - Resistive) of the CSS (contact start/stop) type heads are in contact with the disks when the disks are not rotating, and automatically float when the rotation is started. Spindle motor The disks are rotated by a direct-drive hall-less DC spindle motor. The motor speed is controlled by a feedback circuit using the counter electromotive current to precisely maintain the specified speed.

Page 40: Figure 3.1 Cylinder Configuration
Data Format Cylinder –154 Cylinder –147 Cylinder –143 Cylinder –4 Zone Cell Cylinder • • • m-26 • Note: Spare sectors on the last track in each cylinder are not necessarily placed at the end of the track because of a track skew or a cylinder skew. (Details are explained in Subsection 3.1.3.) Figure 3.1 Apart from the above logical configuration, the HDD intends to increase the storage capacity by dividing all cylinders into several zones and changing a recording density of each zone. - Page 41 User space The user space is a storage area for user data. The data format on the user space (the length of data block and the number of data blocks) can be specified with the MODE SELECT or MODE SELECT EXTENDED command.
-
Page 42: Alternate Spare Area
Data Format 3.1.2 Alternate spare area The alternate spare area consists of the last track of each cell in the user space and an alternate cylinder allocated to the last cylinder of each zone. The spare area in each cell is placed at the end of the last track as shown in Figure 3.2. These spare sectors are located in the end of the track logically, not necessarily located at the end physically because of track skew or cylinder skew. -
Page 43: Track Format
3.1.3 Track format Physical sector allocation Figure 3.4 shows the allocation of the physical sectors in a track. The length in bytes of each physical sector and the number of sectors per track vary depending on the logical data block length. The unused area (G4) exists at the end of the track in formats with most logical data block lengths. -
Page 44: Sector Format
Data Format Track skew Head Head Figure 3.5 The number of physical sectors (track skew factor and head skew factor) corresponding to the skew time varies depending on the logical data block length because the track skew and the head skew are managed for individual sectors. - Page 45 Each sector on the track consists of the following fields: Gaps (G1, G2, G3) No pattern is written on the gap field. PLO Sync In this field, pattern X'00' is written. Sync Mark (SM1, SM2) In this field, special pattern is written. This special pattern indicates the beginning of the data field. Data field (DATA1-DATA4) User data is stored in the data field of the sector.

Page 47: 3.2 Logical Data Block Addressing
Block address of user space The logical data block address number is consecutively assigned to all of the data blocks in the user space starting with 0 to the first data block. The HDD treats sector 0, track 0, cylinder 0 as the first logical data block. The data block is allocated in ascending order of addresses in the following sequence (refer to Figure 3.5): 1) Logical data blocks are assigned in ascending order of sector number in the same track. -
Page 48: Defect Management
Data Format Defect Management 3.3.1 Defect list Information of the defect location on the disk is managed by the defect list. The following are defect lists which the HDD manages. • P list (Primary defect list): This list consists of defect location information available at the disk drive shipment and is recorded in a system space. -
Page 49: Figure 3.7 Alternate Block Allocation By Format Unit Command
Alternate block allocation during FORMAT UNIT command execution When the FORMAT UNIT command is specified, the allocation of the alternate block to those defective sectors included in the specified lists (P, G, or D) is continued until all spare sectors in the same cell are used up. -
Page 50: Figure 3.8 Alternate Block Allocation By Reassign Blocks
Data Format If above errors are detected during FORMAT UNIT command, the HDD allocates the alternate block(s) to the defective data blocks. Reassign procedure itself is the same as one in REASSIGN BLOCKS command. Certification is permitted when DCRT flag is cleared (DCRT flag=0) in FORMAT UNIT command. - Page 51 Automatic alternate block allocation • Automatic alternate block allocation at read operation If the ARRE flag in the MODE SELECT parameter permits the automatic alternate block allocation, the HDD automatically executes the alternate block allocation and data duplication on the defective data block detected during the READ or READ EXTENDED command.

- Page 81 The HDD does not reply to the loop for up to 2 seconds after the initial self-diagnostics is started. After that, the HDD can accept the I/O operation request correctly, but the received command, except the executable commands under the not ready state (such as INQUIRY, START/STOP UNIT), is terminated with the CHECK CONDITION status (NOT READY [=2]/Logical unit is in process of becoming ready [=04-01] or Logical unit not ready, initializing command required [=04-02]) during the interval from the spindle motor becomes stable to the HDD becomes ready.

Page 82: Test Programs
Diagnostics and Maintenance When an error is detected in the self-diagnostics, the HDD terminates the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command with the CHECK CONDITION status. The initiator should issue the REQUEST SENSE command when the CHECK CONDITION status is posted. The sense data collected by the REQUEST SENSE command indicates the detail information of the error detected in the self-diagnostics. -
