Before You Begin Thank you for your interest in Maxtor hard disk drives. This manual

provides technical information for OEM engineers and systems integrators regarding the

installation and use of Maxtor hard drives. Drive repair should be performed only at an

authorized repair center. For repair information, contact the Maxtor Product Support Center

at 1-800-2MAXTOR.

CAUTION: Maxtor hard drives are precision products. Failure to follow these precautions

and guidelines outlined here may lead to product failure, damage and invalidation

of all warranties.

1BEFORE unpacking or handling a drive, take all proper electrostatic discharge

(ESD) precautions, including personnel and equipment grounding. Stand-alone

drives are sensitive to ESD damage.

2BEFORE removing drives from their packing material, allow them to reach room

temperature.

3 During handling, NEVER drop, jar, or bump a drive.

4 Once a drive is removed from the Maxtor shipping container, IMMEDIATELY

secure the drive through its mounting holes within a chassis. Otherwise, store

the drive on a padded, grounded, antistatic surface.

5NEVER switch DC power onto the drive by plugging an electrically live DC source

cable into the drive's connector. NEVER connect a live bus to the drive's inter-

face connector.

6ELECTRICAL GROUNDING - For proper operation, the drive must be securely fas-

tened to a device bay that provides a suitable electrical ground to the drive base-

plate.

Please do not remove or cover up Maxtor factory-installed drive labels. They contain infor-

mation required should the drive ever need repair.

Thank you for your interest in Maxtor hard disk drives. This manual provides technical infor-

mation for OEM engineers and systems integrators regarding the installation and use of

Maxtor hard drives. Drive repair should be performed only at an authorized repair center. For

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Maxtor Corporation

Maxtor Corporation has been providing high-quality computer storage products since

1982. Along the way, we’ve seen many changes in data storage needs. Not long ago,

only a handful of specific users needed more than a couple hundred megabytes of

storage. Today, downloading from the Internet and CD-ROMs, multimedia,

networking and advanced office applications are driving storage needs even higher.

Even home PC applications need capacities measured in gigabytes, not megabytes.

Products

Maxtor’s products meet the demanding data storage capacity requirements of today

and tomorrow. They are available in 5400 and 7200 RPM configurations with

capacity offerings up to 300GB. The Maxtor DiamondMax16 drive family is a 5400

RPM hard drive with capacities from 60 GB to 160 GB.

Support

Maxtor provides a variety of customer support options, all designed to make sure the

user gets fast, helpful, accurate information to help resolve any difficulties. These

options include a broad, searchable knowledge base of FAQ’s, product manuals,

installation guides, information on previously resolved problems, software downloads,

and contact by phone or E-mail with a support person. For more information, visit

1.4 Conventions

If there is a conflict between text and tables, the table shall be accepted as being

correct.

Key Words

The names of abbreviations, commands, fields and acronyms used as signal names are

in all uppercase type (e.g., IDENTIFY DRIVE). Fields containing only one bit are

usually referred to as the “name” bit instead of the “name” field.

Names of drive registers begin with a capital letter (e.g., Cylinder High register).

Numbering

Numbers that are not followed by a lowercase “b” or “h” are decimal values.

Numbers that are followed by a lowercase “b” (e.g., 01b) are binary values. Numbers

that are followed by a lowercase “h” (e.g., 3Ah) are hexadecimal values.

Introduction

Maxtor DiamondMax16 60/80/120/160GB 1-3

Signal Conventions

Signal names are shown in all uppercase type.

All signals are either high active or low active signals. A dash character (-) at the end

of a signal name indicates that the signal is low active. A low active signal is true when

it is below ViL and is false when it is above ViH. A signal without a dash at the end

indicates that the signal is high active. A high active signal is true when it is above ViH

and is false when it is below ViL.

When a signal is asserted, it means the signal is driven by an active circuit to its true

state.

When a signal is negated, it means the signal is driven by an active circuit to its false

state.

When a signal is released, it means the signal is not actively driven to any state. Some

signals have bias circuitry that pull the signal to either a true or false state when no

signal driver is actively asserting or negating the signal. These instances are noted

under the description of the signal.

2.1 Product Overview

Maxtor hard disk drives are 1-inch high, 3.5-inch diameter random access storage

devices which incorporate an on-board Ultra ATA/133 interface controller. High

capacity is achieved by a balanced combination of high areal recording density and

the latest data encoding and servo techniques.

Maxtor's latest advancements in electronic packaging and integration methods have

lowered the drive's power consumption and increased its reliability.

Exceptional data transfer rates, 5400 RPM spin speed and 12.6 ms access times make

these entry-class disk drives ideally-suited to desktop storage and consumer

electronics applications.

2.2 Key Features

• ANSI ATA-5/6 compliant PIO Mode 4 interface (Enhanced IDE)

• Supports ATA-6 UltraDMA Mode 5 (100 MBytes/sec) and Maxtor

Ultra ATA/133 MBytes/second data transfer rates

• Supports 48-bit addressing

• 2 MB buffer with multi-adaptive cache manager

• 5400 RPM spin speed

• 12.6 ms seek time

• Zone density and ID-less recording

• Outstanding shock resistance at 300 Gs

•Highdurabilitywith50Kcontact start/stop cycles

• Advanced multi-burst on-the-fly Error Correction Code (ECC)

• Extended data integrity with ECC protected data and fault tolerant servo

synchronization fields

• Supports EPA Energy Star Standards (Green PC Friendly) with ATA

powering savings commands
