Introduction

This manual describes the functional, mechanical and interface specifi-

cations for the Medalist®Pro 9140, the Medalist Pro 6530 and the

Medalist Pro 4520 hard disc drives. The drives are referred to throughout

this manual by their model numbers, ST39140A for the Medalist Pro

9140, ST36530A for the Medalist Pro 6530, and ST34520A for the

Medalist Pro 4520.

Seagate®desktopproductstakeastepintothefuturewiththeST39140A,

ST36530A and ST34520A. These drives feature MR heads and EPRML

recording technology, Ultra ATA performance, 7,200-RPM technology,

segmented cache, embedded servo technology, low noise and power

management.

Ultra ATA performance means that the drive supports PIO mode 4,

multiword DMA mode 2 transfer modes and synchronous DMA mode.

When the host chooses Ultra DMA mode 2, the drive provides burst

transfer rates of up to 33.3 Mbytes per second. The multiple block

read/write feature allows the drive to store several blocks of data in its

512-Kbyte segmented cache and transfer the blocks in a single burst.

The Medalist Pro drives have other features that ensure fast data

throughput.Embeddedservotechnologyallowsthedrives topositionthe

heads for data retrieval efficiently and accurately while eliminating the

periodic thermal recalibration that can interrupt data transfers. An intel-

ligent controller provides data streaming: direct data transfers between

the drive and the host without microprocessor intervention. These fea-

tures allow for a sustained data-transfer rate that facilitates video play-

back and other multimedia operations.

ThedrivessupportActive,IdleandStandbypower-managementmodes.

Power-saving modes can be controlled by the host computer. Standby

mode reduces power consumption to 3.0 watts (typical) while retaining

drive accessibility.

Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) is

available on these drives. This feature is discussed on page 35. To use

the feature, you must have a BIOS, a software driver or application

software that supports S.M.A.R.T.

The ATA commands with specific applications for these drives and the

Seagate-unique commands the drives use are discussed in Section 3.0

onpage25.Acompletelistofthecommandsthedrivessupportarefound
