NOTE:  It is intended that the hard disk drive should only be in
electrical contact with the chassis of the PC at a designated set of
mounting holes.  Other electrical contact may degrade error rate
performance.  As a result of this it is recommended that there should be
no metal contact to the hard disk drive except at the mounting holes or
the side rails into which the mounting holes are tapped.

2. If JP4 is Off, the drive will spin up automatically after power on
   reset.  If JP4 is On, the drive will not spin up unless the host
   system issues a start command to the drive.

3. If JP5 is On, Unit Attention after power on reset or SCSI bus reset
   is disabled.

4. If JP6 is On, the internal SCSI terminator works.

5. If JP7 is On, Target Initiated Synchronous Negotiation is disabled,
   and then the Initiator is required to start a negotiation handshake
   if Synchronous SCSI transfers are desired.

cover of the drive.

Operating Shock
---------------
The hard disk drive meets the following criteria while operating in
respective conditions described below.  The shock test consists of five
shocks inputs in each axis and direction for total of 30.  There must be
a delay between shock pulses, long enough to allow the drive to complete
all necessary error recovery procedure.

Due to the complexity of this subject we recommend that users contact the
IBM technical support group representative to discuss how to perform the
necessary measurements if they believe this to be an area which requires
evaluation.

DC POWER REQUIREMENTS
=====================
The following voltage specifications apply at the file power connector.
Damage to the file electronics may result if the power supply cable is
connected or disconnected while power is being applied to the file (no
hot plug/unplug is allowed).  There are inductive loads in the file
which could cause destructive high voltage spikes on the file if the
power connection is opened.  There is no special power on/off sequencing
required.

Nominal Supply Voltages        +5 Volts         +12 Volts
Maximum Ripple
(0-20MHz)                      100 mV p-p       100 mV p-p
Voltage Supply
Tolerance
(incl ripple)                  +/- 5%           +10%/-8%
Power Supply
Current (Amps)                 +5 Volts         +12 Volts
  Start Peak                   0.55             1.10
  Idle Average                 0.21             0.14
  R/W Average                  0.44             0.20
  Seek Average                 0.38             0.29

During the file start up and seeking, 12-volt ripple is generated by
the file (referred to as dynamic loading).  If several files have their
power daisy chained together then the power supply ripple plus other
file's dynamic loading must remain within the regulation tolerance of
+10/-8%.  A common supply with separate power leads to each file is a
more desirable method of power distribution.

To prevent external electrical noise from interfering with the file's
performance, the file must be held by four screws in a user system
frame which has no electrical level deference at the four screws
position, and has less than +/-300 millivolts peak to peak level
deference to the file power connector ground.

SCSI CABLE
==========
The disk drive uses single-ended drivers and receivers which will permit
cable lengths of up to 6 meters (19.68 feet).  For a single ended cable
a 50 conductor flat cable or a 25 signal twisted cable can be used with
a maximum length of 6.0 meters, and a stub length not exceeding 0.1 meters.


SCSI BUS TERMINATOR
===================
The file has an internal Active SCSI bus terminator, and can be
controlled on/off with one jumper block provided at the card edge.
The user is responsible for properly terminating and empowering the SCSI
bus in the using system.


MODE SELECT OPTIONS
===================
Certain parameters are alterable using the SCSI "Mode Select" command.
This allows certain drive characteristics to be modified to optimize
performance on a particular system.  Refer to the DSAS-3XXX Interface
Specification for a detailed definition of Mode Select parameters.
The changeable parameters are:
