2.10.1 Test for Prominent Discrete Tones (PDTs)
Seagate follows the ECMA-74 standards for measurement and identification of PDTs. An exception to this process
is the use of the absolute threshold of hearing. Seagate uses this threshold curve (originated in ISO 389-7) to
discern tone audibility and to compensate for the inaudible components of sound prior to computation of tone ratios
according to Annex D of the ECMA-74 standards.
2.11 Electromagnetic immunity
When properly installed in a representative host system, the drive operates without errors or degradation in
performance when subjected to the radio frequency (RF) environments defined in the following table:
2.12 Reliability - Annualized Failure Rate
The product will achieve an Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) of 0.55% when operated in an environment of ambient
air temperatures of 25°C. Operation at temperatures outside the specifications shown in Section 2.9 may increase
the product AFR. AFR is a population statistics that is not relevant to individual units.
• AFR specifications are based on the following assumptions for consumer electronics environments:
• 8760 power-on-hours per year
• 10,000 average motor start/stop cycles per year
• Operations at nominal voltages
• Temperatures outside the specifications in Section 2.9 may reduce the product reliability.
• Normal I/O duty cycle for consumer electronics environments. Operation at excessive I/O duty cycle may
degrade product reliability.
The consumer electronics environment of power-on-hours, temperature, and I/O duty cycle affect the product AFR.
The AFR will be degraded if used in an enterprise application.
