| | | | DS were OPEN, described above. |
+------+------+------+--------------------------------------------+
X indicates the jumper setting does not matter.
Caution: The CS and DS jumpers should never be installed at the same
time.
DS Drive Select Jumper
-----------------------
You can configure two drives on the ATA Interface as Master (Drive 0)
and Slave (Drive 1) using the DS jumpers. Set the CS jumpers to OPEN
for each drive. Then, set the DS Jumper to CLOSED on one drive to
configure that drive as Master. Set the DS jumper to OPEN on the
other drive to configure as Slave.
Note: For drives configured using the DS jumper, the order in which
drives are connected in a daisy chain has no significance.
CS Cable Select Jumper
-----------------------
When two ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drives are daisy-chained
together, they can be configured as Master and Slave by using the CS
jumper or by using the DS jumper - BUT NOT BOTH. To configure the two
drives using the CS jumper, set the CS jumper to CLOSED and the DS
jumper to OPEN on each drive.
Once you install the CS jumper, the drive is configured as a Master
or Slave by state of the Cable Select signal, which is pin 28 at the
IDE-bus interface connector. Quantum uses pin 28 Cable Select
function but does not implement the spindle synchronization function.
Pin 28 is grounded - that is, set to OPEN - on the cable coming from
the host. This configures the first drive as Master. Then, pin 28 on
the connector at the second drive should be made an open circuit by a
cut in signal line 28 in the cable from the first drive, so it
becomes high - that is, set to CLOSED - due to a pull-up in the
second drive. This configures the second drive as a Slave.
SP Slave Present Jumper
------------------------
The SP jumper normally is not needed. However, when the ProDrive LPS
210/420AT is configured as Master and is connected to a Slave
drive that does not implement the Drive Active/Slave Present (DASP-)
signal, it is necessary to set the SP jumper to CLOSED on the
ProDrive LPS 210/420AT.

The drive will operate in all axis (6 directions).
Mounting
--------
The mounting holes on the ProDrive LPS 120/240AT hard disk drive
allow the drive to be mounted in any orientation.
Caution: The PCB is very close to the mounting holes. Do not
exceed the specified length for the mounting screws. The specified
screw length allows full use of the mounting-hole threads, while
avoiding damaging or placing unwanted stress on the PCB. To avoid
stripping the mounting-hole threads, the maximum torque applied to
the mounting screws must not exceed 8 inch-pounds.
Clearance
---------
Clearance from the drive - except mounting surfaces - to any surface
must be 1.25 mm (0.05 inches) minimum.
Ventilation
-----------
The LPS 210/420AT hard disk drives operates without a cooling fan,
provided the ambient air temperature does not exceed 122*F (50*C).
Drive Cable and Connector
-------------------------
The hard disk drive connects to the host computer by means of a
cable. This cable contains a 40-pin computer that plugs into the
drive, and a 40-pin conector that plugs into the host computer. At
the host end, the cable plugs into either an adapter board residing
in a host expansion slot or an on-board IDE adapter.
If two drives are connected by a cable with two 40-pin drive
connectors, the cable-select feature of the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT
automatically configures each as drive 0 or drive 1 depending on the
configuration of pin 28 on the connector.
IDE-Bus Interface
-----------------
A 40-pin IDE interface connector on the motherboard or an adapter
board provides an interface between the drive and a host that uses an
IBM PC AT bus. The IDE interface contains bus drivers and receivers
compatible with the standard AT bus. The AT-bus interface signals
D8-D15, INTRQ and IOCS16- require an IDE adapter board to have an
extended I/O-bus connector.
The IDE interface buffers data and control signals between the drive
and the AT bus of the host system, and decodes addresses on the host
address bus. The Command Block Registers on the drive accept commands
from the host system BIOS.
NOTE
Some host systems do not read the Status Register after the drive
issues an interrupt. In such cases, the interrupt may not be
acknowledged. To overcome thos problem, you may have to configure a
jumper on the motherboard or adapter board to allow interrupts to be
controlled by the drive's interrupt logic. Read your motherboard or
adapter board manual carefully to find out how to do this.
J11A/B/C DC Power/Interface Connector
--------------------------------------
The drive's DC power can be applied to either section A or B.
The IDE-bus interface (40-pin) uses section C.

Labels indicates the pin numbers on the connectors.
IDE-Bus Interface Connector (J11C)
----------------------------------
On the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive, the IDE-bus interface
cable connector (J11 section C) is a 40-pin Universal Header.
To prevent the possibility of incorrect installation, make sure the
connector is keyed by removing Pin 20. Removing this pin ensures the
connector cannot be installed upside down.
For mating with J11 section C, recommended cable connectors include
the following parts or their equivalents:
AMP receptacle with strain relief P/N 1-499506-0
AMP receptacle without strain relief P/N 1-746193-0
To key the cable connector, you must plug the hole that corresponds
to pin 20.
Other recommended part numbers for the mating connector include:
40-Pin Connector 3M 3417-7000 or equivalent
Strain Relief 3M 3448-2040 or equivalent
Flat Cable (Stranded 28 AWG) 3M 3365-40 or equivalent
Flat Cable (Stranded 28 AWG) 3M 3517-40 (shielded) or equivalent
J12 LED Connector
-----------------
The LED connector may be used to connect an external LED for the
purpose of monitoring drive activity. A 220-ohm resistor is connected
in series from the +LED pin to +5 volts. The -LED pin is connected
to a switching transistor on the drive that turns on and lights the
LED when the disk is performing a read or write operation. When no
read or write operation is taking place, the transistor turns off and
the LED is extinguished. The recommended mating connector parts are:
Two-position housing: Molex P/N 51021-0200,
Loose-piece contacts: Molex P/N 50058-8100, or equivalent.
Pin 1 -LED, Pin 2 +LED.
For Systems with a Motherboard AT Adapter
=========================================
You can install the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive in an
AT-compatible system that contains a 40-pin AT-bus connector on the
motherboard.
To connect the drive to the motherboard, use a 40-pin ribbon cable.
Ensure that pin 1 of the drive is connected to pin 1 of the mother-
board connector.
For Systems with an IDE Adapter Board
=====================================
To install a ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive in an AT-
compatible system without a 40-pin, IDE-bus connector on its
motherboard, you need a third-party IDE-compatible adapter board.
Adapter Board Installation
--------------------------
Carefully read the manual that accompanies your adapter board before
installing it. Make sure that all the jumpers are set properly and
that there are no addressing or signal conflicts. You must also
investigate to see if your AT-compatible system contains a
combination floppy and hard disl controller board. If it does, you
must disable the hard disk drive controller functions on the
controller board before processing.
Once you have disabled the hard disk drive controller functions on
the floppy/hard drive controller, install the adapter board. Again,
make sure that you have set all jumper straps on the adapter board
to avoid addressing and signal conflicts.
Connecting the Adapter Board and the Drive
------------------------------------------
Use a 40-pin ribbon cable to connect the drive to the board.
1. Insert the 40-pin cable connector into the mating connector of
the adapter board. Make sure that pin 1 of the connector matches
with pin 1 on the cable.
2. Insert the other end of the cable into the header on the drive.
When inserting this end of the cable, make sure that pin 1 of the
cable connects to pin 1 of the drive connector.
3. Secure the drive to the system chassis by using the mounting
screws.
Electrical Characteristics
--------------------------
All signals are transistor-transistor logic (TTL) compatible - with
logic 1 greater than 2.0 volts and less than 5.25 volts; and logic 0
greater than 0.2 volts and less than 0.8 volts. Neither the adapter
board, motherboard interface, or drives require terminating
resistors.
Air Filtration
--------------
The ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drives are Winchester-type
drives. The heads fly very close to the media surface. Therefore, it
is essential that the air circulating within the drive be kept free
of particles. Quantum assembles the drive in a Class-100, purified
air environment, then seals the drive with a metal cover. When the
drive is in use, the rotation of the disks forces the air inside the
drive through an internal filter. The highest air pressure within the
HDA is at the outer perimeter of the disks. A constant stream of air
flows through a 0.3-micron circulation filter positioned in the base
casting.

General Description
-------------------
Quantum's ProDrive Low Profile Series (LPS) 210AT/420AT hard disk
drives are a part of a family of high-performance, 1-inch-high hard
disk drives manufactured to meet the highest product quality
standards. ProDrive LPS hard disk drives use nonremovable, 3 -inch
hard disks, and are available with a Small Computer System Interface
(SCSI) or Advanced Technology (AT) interface.
The ProDrive LPS 210AT/420AT hard disk drives feature an embedded IDE
drive controller and use ATA commands to optimize systems
performance. The drive manages media defects and error recovery
internally, these operations are transparent to the user.

System Startup and Operation
----------------------------
Once you have installed the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive
and adapter board (if required) in the host system, you are ready to
partition and format the drive for operation. To set up the drive
correctly, follow these steps:
1. Power on the system
2. Run the SETUP program. This is generally on a Diagnostics or
Utilities disk, or within the system's BIOS.
3. Enter the appropriate parameters.
The SETUP program allows you to enter the types of optional hard-
ware installed - such as the hard disk drive type, the floppy disk
drive capacity, and the display adapter type. The system's BIOS
uses this information to initialize the system when the power is
switched on. For instructions on how to use the SETUP program,
refer to the system manual for your PC.
During the AT system CMOS setup, you must enter the drive type for
the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive. This procedure allows
the system to recognize the drive by translating its physical
drive parameters such as cylinders, heads, and sectors per
track, into a logical addressing mode. The drive can work with
different BIOS drive-type tables of the various host systems.
You can choose any drive type that does not exceed the capacity of
the drive.
4. Boot the system using the operating system installation disk.
Formatted Capacity
------------------
At the factory, the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT receives a low-level
format that creates the actual tracks and sectors on the drive.
Data Transfer Rates
-------------------
Data is transferred from the disk to the read buffer at a rate up to
3.945 MB/s in burst. Data is transferred from the read buffer to the
AT bus at a rate up to 6.0 MB/s, using programmed I/O. If IORDY is
used, then this transfer rate can be increased to 11 MB/s. Using the
Multiword DMA protocol, transfer rates of 13.3 MB/s. are achievable
(burst mode only).
Reliability
-----------
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF): 300,000 Power On Hours (POH),
typical usage
Component Life: 5 years
Preventive Maintenance (PM): Not required
Start/Stop: 20,000 cycles (minimum)
The Quantum MTBF numbers represent Bell-Core MTBF predictions and
represent the minimum MTBF that Quantum or a customer would expect
from the drive.
Error Detection and Correction
------------------------------
As disk drive areal densities increase, obtaining extremely low error
rate requires a new generation of soghisticated error-correction
codes. Quantum ProDrive LPS 210/420AT series hard disk drives
implement 112-bit single- and double-burst Reed-Solomon error
correction techniques to reduce the uncorrectable read error rate to
less than one bit in 1 x 10(14) bits read.
When errors occur, an automatic retry and a more rigorous double-
burst correction algorithm enable the correction of any sector with
two burst of three incorrect bytes each or up to six multiple random
one-byte burst errors. In addition to these advanced error correction
capabilities, the drive's additional cross-checking code and
algorithm double checks the main ECC correction to greatly reduce the
probability of miscorrection.
Automatic Actuator Lock
-----------------------
To ensure data integrity and prevent damage during shipment, the
drive uses a dedicated landing zone and Quantum's patented AIRLOCK.
AIRLOCK, locks the headstack in the landing zone. It consists of an
air vane mounted near the perimeter of the disk stack and a locking
arm that restrains the actuator arm assembly.
When DC power is applied to the motor and the disk stack rotates, the
rotation generates an airflow on the surface of the disk. As the flow
of air across the air vane increases with disk ratation, the locking
arm pivots away from the actuator arm, enabling the headstack to move
out of the landing zone. When DC power is removed from the motor, an
electric return mechanism automatically pulls the actuator into the
landing zone, where the AIRLOCK holds it in place.
Disk Caching
------------
The ProDrive LPS 210/420AT hard disk drive incorporates DisCache, a
96K disk cache, to enhance drive performance. This integrated feature
can significantly improve system throughput. Read and write caching
can be enabled or disabled by using the SET CONIGURATION command.
Defect Management
-----------------
The ProDrive LPS 210/420AT allocates one sector per cylinder as
a spare. In the factory, the media is scanned for defects. If a
sector on a cylinder is found to be defective, the address of the
sector is added to the drive's defect list. Sectors located
physically subsequent to the defective sector are assigned logical
block addresses such that a sequential ordering of logical blocks
results. This inline sparing technique is employed in an attempt to
eliminate slow data transfer that would result from a single defect-
ive sector on a cylinder.
If more than one sector is found defective on a cylinder, the inline
sparing technique is applied only to the first sector. The remaining
defective sectors are replaced with the nearest available spare
sectors on nearby cylinders. Such an assignment of additional
replacement sectors from nearby sectors rather than having a central
pool of spare sectors is an attempt to minimize the motion of the
actuator and head that otherwise would be needed to find a replace-
ment sector. The result is minimal reduction of data throughput.
Track and Cylinder Skewing
--------------------------
Track and cylinder skewing in the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT minimizes
latency time and thus increases data throughput.
Track Skewing
-------------
Track skewing reduces the latency time that results when the drive
must switch read/write heads to access sequential data. A track skew
is employed such that the next logical sector of data to be accessed
will be under the read/write head once the head switch is made and
the data is ready to be accessed. Thus, when sequential data is on
the same cylinder but on a different disk surface, a head switch is
needed but not a seek. Since the sequential head-switch time is well
defined on the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT (6 ms worst case), the sector
addresses can be optimally positioned across track boundaries to
minimize the latency time during a head switch.
Cylinder Skewing
----------------
Cylinder Skewing also is used to minimize the latency tome associated
with a single-cylinder seek. The next logical sector of data that
crosses a cylinder boundary is positioned on the drive such that
after a single-cylinder seek is performed, and when the drive is
ready to continue accessing data, the sector to be accessed is
positioned directly under the read/write head. Therefore, the
cylinder skew takes place between the last sector of data on the last
head of a cylinder and the first sector of data on the first head of
the next cylinder. Since single-cylinder seeks are well defined on
the ProDrive LPS 210/420AT, the sector addresses can be optimally
positioned across cylinder boundaries to minimize the latency time
associate with a single-cylinder seek.
Error Reporting
---------------
At the start of a command's execution, GoDrive 40/80AT hard disk
drives check the COMMAND register for any conditions that would lead
to an abort command error. The drive then attempts execution of the
command. Any new error causes execution of the command to terminate
at the point at which it occurred. The following table list the valid
errors for each command.
