6.0 Physical/electrical specifications
This section provides information relating to the physical and electrical characteristics of Medalist Pro drives.
6.1 AC power requirements
None.
6.2 DC power requirements
The voltage and current requirements for a single drive are shown in the following table. Values indicated apply
at the drive power connector. The single ended power requirements includes the internal disc drive SCSI I/O
termination. The table shows current values in Amperes.
Table 2a: DC power requirements for N/W/WC models
Table 2b: DC power requirements for LW/LC models
Notes for Tables 2a and 2b.
[1] Measured with average reading DC ammeter. Instantaneous +12 V current peaks will exceed these val-
ues.
[2] A –10% droop is permissible during initial start of spindle, and must return to ±5% before 7,200 rpm is
reached. The ±5% must be maintained after the drive signifies that its power-up sequence has been com-
