Travelstar 18GT
Electrical interface specifications

Models: DARA-215000 and 218000
 

Cabling

The maximum cable length from the host system to the drive plus circuit pattern in the host system shall not exceed 18 inches.
  

A/T interface connector

The A/T interface connector is designed to mate with Dupont part number 69764-044 or equivalent.
IDE connector
Notes: A/T = IDE. Pin position 20 is left blank for secure connector insertion. Pin position A,B,C, and D are used for drive address setting.

Notes:
  1. "O" designates an output from the drive.
  2. "I" designates an input to the drive.
  3. "I/O" designates an input/output common.
  4. "PWR" designates a power supply to the drive.
  5. "(Resv)" designates reserved pins which must be left unconnected.
  6. "*" these signal lines are redifined during the Ultra DMA protocol to provide special functions as detailed in the table below. These lines change from the conventional to special definitions at the moment the host decides to allow a DMA burst, if the Ultra DMA transfer mode was previously chosen via SetFeatures. The drive becomes aware of this change upon assertion of the -DMACK line. These lines revert back to their original definitions upon the deassertion of -DMACK at the termination of the DMA burst.
  7. There are two input pins for +5V power supply, "+5V Logic" and "+5V Motor". These two input pins are tied together within drive.
