Pins on the drive ID select and configuration select header are
provided to facilitate manual drive configuration. No devices other
than jumpers should be connected to these pins. Connection made to
external devices (Switches, Connectors, etc.) could result in adverse
affect drive performance. Exact location of these pins and header
may be changed without notice.
Drive Select
------------
The following characteristics apply to the Drive Select lines:
1. Logical unit designation for up to 7 drives is performed during
installation by installing jumpers on pins on a connector
header on the main PWA. The jumpers are installed in a 1
through 7 position configuration to select device addresses 1
through 7. Zero is not a valid address.
2. The controller shall not attempt to select the drive until 1
second after DC power is applied. The Ready output will be
valid (whether asserted or negated) within 1 us after the drive
is selected.
3. The drive will be selected (and the Drive Selected Signal
asserted) within 1 us after the Drive Select lines contain that
unit's select address. The drive will be deselected (and the
Drive Selected signal negated) within 1 us after the Drive
Select lines contain another unit's select address.
4. The Drive Select lines must remain asserted for 1 us after a
write operation.
5. When the Drive Select lines are asserted, a head change will
occur, requiring a delay before a read or write operation can
be initiated.

Notes on installation
=====================
Drive Orientation
-----------------
The balanced rotary arm actuator design of the Wren 6 HH allows it to
be mounted in any orientation. All drive performance characterization
however, has been done with the drive in horizontal (disc level) and
vertical (drive on its side) orientations, and these are the two
preferred mounting orientations.
WREN 6 HH is designed, manufactured, and tested with a "Plug-in and
Play" installation philosophy. This minimizes the requirements for
highly trained personnel to integrate the WREN 6 HH into an OEM's
system, wether in a factory or field environment.
Mounting Holes
--------------
Mounting Holes (6-32 UNC-2B). Four on bottom, four on each side. Max.
screw length into chassis 0.125 in.
Front Panel
-----------
The WREN 6 HH is available with a black front panel. The panel has a
window through which a single red* LED shows from its mounting on the
Main PWA. The LED, when glowing, indicates the drive is selected. A
flashing LED indicates the presence of a nonrecoverable fault. A
fault indication is displayed irrespective of Drive Select status.
*Green or Amber LED indicator will be available, but must be
specified when ordering units.
Cooling
-------
Cabinet cooling must be designed by the customer so that the ambient
temperature immediately surrounding the WREN 6 HH will not exceed
temperature conditions. Specific consideration should be given to
make sure adequate air circulation around the components on the PWAs.

host system has its control and data signals enabled through this
common interface. View B illustrates a daisy-chain of WREN 6 HH Disc
Drives or other ESDI devices. A terminator resistor pack is
required in the host controller for each data cable. Only the last
ESDI device in the daisychain requires a terminator resistor pack
for the control cable. Terminator resistor packs for the control
cable or other drives must be removed. The total combined control
cable length (from the controller to the first drive, to the second
and subsequent drives) must not be more than 10 feet (3.00 meters).

SEAGATE ST2182E/ST2383E PRODUCT MANUAL 77765369-C
General Description
-------------------
The WREN 6 HH is a member of a family of low cost, high performance,
highly reliable, random access storage devices designed to meet the
needs of the OEM marketplace.
The Model 94246 WREN 6 HH supports the Enhanced Small Device
Specification (77738076). This product specification was created to
be used in conjunction with this industry standard interface
specification.
Standards
---------
The WREN 6 HH has been developed as a system peripherals to the
highest standards of design and construction. The WREN 6 HH depends
upon its equipment to provide adequate power and environment in
order to achieve optimum performance and compliance with applicable
industry and governmental regualations. Special attention must be
given in the areas of safety, power distribution, shielding, audible
noise control, and temperature regulation.
The WREN 6 HH complies with Seagate standards.
The WREN 6 HH, as delivered, is designed for system integration
before use.
The Head/Disc/Actuator Assembly (HDA) is environmentally sealed at
the factory. Air is recirculated within the HDA through a nonreplace-
able filter to maintain a contamination free HDA environment.
The WREN 6 HH uses a dedicated landing zone at the innermost radius
of the media thus eliminating the possibility of destroying or
degrading data by landing in the data zone.
The WREN 6 HH incorporates an automatic shipping look which prevents
potential damage to the heads and discs caused by movements during
shipping and handling. The shipping lock is automatically disengaged
when power is applied to the drive.
The WREN 6 HH decodes Track 0 location from the dedicated servo
surface thereby eliminating mechanical transducer adjustments and
related reliability concerns.
The WREN 6 HH uses a high performance actuator assembly consisting
of a low inertia, balanced, patented, straight arm design which
provides excellent performance with minimum power dissipation.
Media Description
-----------------
The media used on the WREN 6 HH has a diameter of approximately 5
inches (130 mm). The aluminum substrate is coated with a thin film
magnetic material, overcoated with a proprietary protective layer for
improved durability and environmental protection.
Each data surface has a total of 1747 tracks and is capable of
recording 54,716,040 bytes of unformatted data.
Media defects are characterized as correctable or uncorrectable de-
pending on the type and magnitude of the media flaw. Various error
correction codes may be implemented. The code chosen should be
consistent with Seagate media testing and certification methods.
WREN 6 HH media certification is performed using the following
standards:
An error burst of 11 bits or less is a correctable error.
An error burst greater than 11 bits in length is an un-
correctable error.
Host systems using the WREN 6 HH should have, as a minimum, resident
capabilities to recognize and map defective tracks and perform track
reallocation routines.
At the time of shipment from the point of manufacture, the WREN 6 HH
recording surfaces meet the following requirements.
1. 1747 total tracks per surface.
2. Tracks 0 to be error free on each data surface.
3. 50 defects per surface maximum.
4. Cumulative defects not to exceed 1 per megabyte, based on
total available unformatted drive capacity.
Defect and Error Management
---------------------------
The WREN 6 HH, as delivered, complies with specification. The read
error rate and specified storage capacity are not dependent upon use
of defect management routines. However, a carefully chosen defect
management plan can significantly enhance overall system performance.
Identified defects are recorded on the defects list tracks per ESDI
specification. It is recommended that these known defects be re-
allocated during the initial format operation. Sector reallocation is
suggested because, in general, it is more efficient and may offer
significant performance improvement. Error Correction Code (ECC)
should be used to correct additional flaws as they occur. ECC is re-
commended since most of the defects are recoverable with ECC. If ECC
is not used, defects are usually unrecoverable and need to be re-
allocated as they are discovered.
The WREN 6 HH defect list is written on maximum track, maximum track
minus eigth and a special track 4095 (OFFF)
Custom Formatting
-----------------
The WREN 6 HH is formatted during production. Seagate maintains
custom formatting capability which can incorporate many of the unique
formats used in the Winchester marketplace. A majority of special
format requirements can be implemented as specified.
Drive/Receiver Characteristics
------------------------------
Logic Level Drive Output Receiver Input
--------------------------------------------------------------------
High (negated) (0) 2.5 V; 5.25 V 2.0 V; 5.25 V
Low (asserted) (1) 0.7 V; 0.0 V 0.8 V; 0.0 V
The difference in the voltages between input and output signals is
due to the losses in the cable.
Seek Time
---------
|WREN 6HH|
----------------------------------+--------+
Track-to-Track msec. typ. | 3 |
msec. max. | 5 |
Average msec. typ. | 16 |
Average msec. max. | 18 |
Latency msec. avg. | 8.35 |
----------------------------------+--------+
Seek time is defined as the elapsed time from the receipt of a seek
command until the drive signals the controller that it is ready to
perform another seek or a read/write function on the new cylinder.
Average seek time is determined by dividing the sum of the time for
all possible movements by the total number of movements.
Spindle Speed and Latency
-------------------------
The spindle speed is 3592 0.5% r/min. The speed tolerance includes
motor performance and motor control circuit tolerances.
The average latency time is 8.35 milliseconds, based on a nominal
disc speed of 3592 r/min. The maximum latency time is 16.79 milli-
seconds based on a minimum disc speed of 3574 r/min.
Read Data Transfer Rate
-----------------------
The nominal read serial data transfer rate is 15.0 Mbits per second.
Power Sequencing
----------------
Power sequencing is not required for the WREN 6 HH. The drive
protects against inadvertent writing during power up and down.
Daisychain operation requires that power be maintained on the
terminated WREN 6 HH to ensure proper termination of the peripherals
I/O cables.
Temperature
-----------
50*F to 122*F (10*C to 50*C) operating ambient with a maximum
gradient of 18* F (10* C) per hour. Above 1000 feet (305 metres)
altitude the maximum temperature is derated linearly to 122*F
(44.4*C) at 10,000 feet (3048 metres). Cabinet packaging designs
must provide ample air circulation around the WREN 6 HH to ensure
environmental limits are not exceeded as a result of heat transfer
from other system components. Operating ambient specifications
purposes is defined as the environment immediately surrounding the
WREN 6 HH. The temperature of the HDA is restricted to a maximum of
142*F (61.4*C) during operations. System cooling consideration should
avoid large (>5*F or 2.8*C) thermal gradients between points A and B.
Reliability
-----------
The following reliability specifications assume correct host/drive
operational interface, including all interface timings, power supply
voltages, and environmental conditions.
MTBF 40,000 hours
Service Life 5 years
Preventive Maintenance None required
