Before You Begin

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

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 electro-static 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 information for OEM engineers and systems inte-

grators regarding the installation and use of Maxtor hard drives. Drive repair should be per-

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.

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

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

Introduction

Maxtor MaXLine II 250/300GB 1-3

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.

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 cir-

cuit to its true state.

When a signal is negated, it means the signal is driven by an active cir-

cuit 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.
