Seagate Enterprise Capacity 2.5 HDD v3 SAS Product Manual, Rev. E 8
2.0 Applicable standards and reference documentation
The drives documented in this manual have been developed as system peripherals to the highest standards of design and construction. The drives
depend on host equipment to provide adequate power and environment for optimum performance and compliance with applicable industry and
governmental regulations. Special attention must be given in the areas of safety, power distribution, shielding, audible noise control, and
temperature regulation. In particular, the drives must be securely mounted to guarantee the specified performance characteristics. Mounting by
bottom holes must meet the requirements of Section 10.3.
2.1 Standards
The Enterprise Capacity 2.5 HDD v3 family complies with Seagate standards as noted in the appropriate sections of this manual and the Seagate SAS
Interface Manual, part number 100293071.
The drives are recognized in accordance with UL 60950-1, CSA 60950-1, and EN60950-1.
The security features of Self-Encrypting Drive models are based on the “TCG Storage Architecture Core Specification” and the “TCG Storage
Workgroup Security Subsystem Class: Enterprise_A” specification with additional vendor-unique features as noted in this product manual.
2.1.1 Electromagnetic compatibility
The drive, as delivered, is designed for system integration and installation into a suitable enclosure prior to use. The drive is supplied as a
subassembly and is not subject to Subpart B of Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations.
The design characteristics of the drive serve to minimize radiation when installed in an enclosure that provides reasonable shielding. The drive is
capable of meeting the Class B limits of the FCC Rules and Regulations when properly packaged; however, it is the user’s responsibility to assure that
the drive meets the appropriate EMI requirements in their system. Shielded I/O cables may be required if the enclosure does not provide adequate
shielding. If the I/O cables are external to the enclosure, shielded cables should be used, with the shields grounded to the enclosure and to the host
controller.
2.1.1.1 Electromagnetic susceptibility
As a component assembly, the drive susceptibility drive was tested in a representative system for typical applications. It is the responsibility of those
integrating the drive within their systems to perform those tests required and design their system to ensure that equipment operating in the same
system as the drive or external to the system does not adversely affect the performance of the drive. See Section 6.3, DC power requirements.
2.1.2 Electromagnetic compliance
Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance with the directives/standards for CE Marking and RCM Marking. The drive was
tested in a representative system for typical applications and comply with the Electromagnetic Interference/Electromagnetic Susceptibility (EMI/
EMS) for Class B products.
Although the test system with this Seagate model complies with the directives/standards, we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply. The
computer manufacturer or system integrator shall confirm EMC compliance and provide the appropriate marking for their product.
Electromagnetic compliance for the European Union
If this model has the CE Marking it complies with the European Union requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2004/108/EC as
put into place on 20 July 2007.
Canada ICES-003
If this model has the ICES-003 Marking it complies with the Canadian Standard Association Standard CAN/CSA-CISPR 22-10, Information
Technology Equipment - Radio Disturbance Characteristics - Limits and Methods of Measurement.
Australian RCM Mark
If this model has the RCM Marking it complies with the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS/NZ CISPR22 and meets the Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of Australia’s Radiocommunications Act.
Korean KCC
If these drives have the Korean Communications Commission (KCC) logo, they comply with KN22, KN 24, and KN61000.
Taiwanese BSMI
If this model has the Taiwanese certification mark then it complies with Chinese National Standard, CNS13438.
2.1.3 European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive restricts the presence of chemical substances, including Lead (Pb), in
electronic products effective July 2006.
