    CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION Standard Features Hardware Structure System Configuration This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the intelligent disk drives (IDD). IDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5 type fixed disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller. The interface between the IDD and host system is based on SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) standard [ANSI X3.131 - 1986: Small Computer System Interface (SCSI), ANSI X3.131-1994: Small Computer System Interface - 2 (SCSI-2)].
  • Page 20: Standard Features

    Standard Features Compactness Since the SCSI controller circuit is embedded in the standard 3.5 type fixed disk drive form factor, the IDD is extremely compact. The IDD can be connected directly to the SCSI bus of the host system. SCSI/CCS standard The IDD provides not only SCSI basic functions but also the following features: •...
  • Page 21 Note: The maximum data transfer rate in asynchronous mode may be limited by the response time of initiator and the length of SCSI bus length. The maximum data transfer rate in synchronous mode may be limited by the cable length, transmission characteristics of the SCSI bus and the connected SCSI device number.
  • Page 22 (10) Error recovery The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus 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. The initiator software is released from the complicated error recover processing by these error recovery functions of the IDD.
  • Page 23: Hardware Structure

    (18) Low power consumption By using highly integrated LSI components, the power consumption of the IDD is very low, and this enables the unit to be used in wide range of environmental conditions. (19) Low noise and low vibration The noise level is low; approx. 3.9/3.6 bels for MAN series. This makes it ideal for office use. (20) Microcode downloading The IDD implements the microcode download feature.
  • Page 24 Figure 1.2 MAN series MP model outer view Disks The disks have an outer diameter of 84 mm (3.3 inch) outer diameter and 25 mm (0.98 inch) inner diameter for MAN series. The disks are good for at least 20,000 contact starts and stops. Each model contains following number of disks.
  • Page 25: Figure 1.3 Disk/Head Configuration

    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. Figure 1.3 shows the configuration of disks and heads MAN3735 MAN3367 MAN3184...
  • Page 26: System Configuration

    Read/write circuit The read/write circuit utilizes a read channel mounted with a head IC that supports high-speed transmission and an MEEPR4ML (Modified Enhanced Extended Partial Response Class 4 Maximum Likelihood) modulation/demodulation circuit in order to prevent errors being triggered by external noise and to improve data reliability. Controller circuit The controller circuit uses LSIs to increase the reliability and uses a high speed microprocessing unit (MPU) to increase the performance of the SCSI controller.
  • Page 27 SCSI bus configuration Up to eight SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 8-bit SCSI and up to 16 SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 16-bit SCSI in any combination.

    A number staring with 0 is assigned to each cylinder required in the user space in ascending order. If the number of cylinders do not reach the maximum, the rest of the cylinders will not be used. Always one alternate cylinders can be established in the user space. Alternate cylinders will be used for alternate blocks when primary cylinders in the user space are used up.
  • Page 41: Track Format

    Cell Note: This drive manages alternate spare areas for each cell, which is a set of cylinders. The default value for the number of cylinders is four. Figure 3.2 Spare area in cell An alternate cylinder is used when spare sectors in a cell are used up or 0 is specified as the number of spare sectors in a cell.

  • Page 43: Sector Format

    Figure 3.5 Track skew/cylinder skew The number of physical sectors (track skew factor and cylinder skew factor) corresponding to the skew time varies depending on the logical data block length because the track skew and the cylinder skew are managed for individual sectors. The IDD automatically determines appropriate values for the track skew factor and the cylinder skew factor according to the specified logical data block length.

  • Page 47: Defect Management

    When the logical data block is allocated, some sectors (track skew and cylinder skew) shown in Figure 3.5 are provided to avoid waiting for one turn involving head and cylinder switching at the location where the track or the cylinder is physically switched. See Subsection 3.3.2 for defective/alternate block treatment and the logical data block allocation method in case of defective sectors exist on the disk.
  • Page 48 Spare sectors to which alternate blocks are allocated can be provided in either "spare sectors in a cylinder" or "alternate cylinders". See Subsection 3.1.2 for details. The INIT can specify the size and area for spare sectors by the MODE SELECT command at the time of the initialization of the disk.

    : n represents a logical data block number : Defective sector : Unused spare sector Figure 3.7 Alternate block allocation by FORMAT UNIT command If the data block verifying operation (certification) is not permitted (DCRT flag = 0) in the FORMAT UNIT command, the IDD checks all initialized logical data blocks by reading them out after the above alternate block allocation is made to initialize (format) the disk.
  • Page 50: Figure 3.8 Alternate Block Allocation By Reassign Blocks Command

    Alternate block allocation by REASSIGN BLOCKS command When the REASSIGN BLOCKS command is specified, the alternate block is allocated to the defective logical data block specified by the initiator by means of alternate sector treatment. If there are unused spare sectors in the same cylinder as the specified defective logical data block, the alternate block is allocated to these unused spare sectors.
  • Page 51 • Automatic alternate block allocation at write operation If the AWRE flag in the MODE SELECT parameter permits the automatic alternate block allocation, the IDD executes reassign processing to all the existing sectors in the servo frame where offtrack error occurred during WRITE or WRITE EXTENDED or WRITE AND VERIFY command processing and in the next servo frame.

In this case, it is recommended to issue the REQUEST SENSE command from the initiator (host system) to obtain information (sense data) for error analysis.

  • Page 99 The IDD does not reply to the SCSI bus for up to 2 seconds after the initial self-diagnostics is started. After that, the IDD 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 not ready [=04-00]) during the interval from the spindle motor becomes stable to the IDD becomes ready.
  • Page 100: Test Programs

    When an error is detected in the self-diagnostics, the IDD terminates the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command with the CHECK CONDITION status. At this time only when an error is detected in the hardware function test, the LED on the front panel of the disk drive blinks.

    Interface (SCSI bus) test The operations of the SCSI bus and data buffer on the IDD are checked with the WRITE BUFFER and READ BUFFER commands. Basic operation test The basic operations of the IDD are checked by executing self-diagnosis with the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command (see Subsection 6.1.1).

    CAUTION Always ground yourself with a wrist strap connected to ground before handling. ESD (Electrostatics Discharge) may cause the damage to the device. To prevent electrical damage to the disk drive, turn the power off before connecting or disconnecting a cable, connector, or plug. Do not remove a PCA.

    Replacement is usually done by the user, retail dealer, distributor, or OEM engineer. Factory maintenance (parts replacement) • This replacement can only be done by Fujitsu. • Replacement includes maintenance training and OEM engineer support. OEM engineers usually support retail dealers and distributors.

Depending on the maintenance level, analyze the error to detect a possibly faulty part (disk drive, or disk drive part). Full-scale troubleshooting is usually required if the error cause is not known. If the error cause is clear (e.g., abnormal noise in disk enclosure or burning of a PCA), troubleshooting is straightforward.
