ABOUT FUJITSU ENTERPRISE DRIVES

Fujitsu has become firmly established as a leading supplier of Enterprise class hard

disk drives to the World s leading OEM s and more recently expanded it s efforts to

focus on local OEM s and resellers.

Fujitsu offers a full range of Enterprise drives with Ultra160 SCSI and Fibre Channel

Interfaces.

Fujitsu 10K RPM drives are renowned as being amongst the fastest around whilst

running cool and with excellent acoustics and, as you would expect from Fujitsu,

superb reliability.

Fujitsu’s new 15K RPM drives are designed to meet the needs of our most

performance hungry customers and firmly establish Fujitsu as performance leader in

this class.

It is no wonder that so many top OEM s insist on Fujitsu.

FUJITSU QUALITY ASSURANCE

A unique service to reduce cost of ownership.

Hard disk drives sometimes fail, even Fujitsu drives may fail. It is a rare event

and all HDD vendors try to make their products as reliable as possible. The

difference is what happens if as a Fujitsu customer one of your drives should

fail.

Fujitsu had the vision to install a customer focussed Quality Assurance

Laboratory. Inaugurated in 1998 at a cost of more than $1 million, this

laboratory provides the same analysis facilities that you would find in a hard

disk drive factory, but rather than being located in the Far East and accessible

only to a few top OEM s, Fujitsu s laboratory is located close to our offices in

London and is open to ALL Fujitsu customers.

Challenged with the task of quality evolution , our laboratory staff are

dedicated to ensuring that the details of any new drive failure are analysed,

categorised and corrective action implemented as quickly as possible.

3



Drives are covered by warranty, so why should you care ?

Well, clearly this direct and rapid feedback to our factories means that Fujitsu

products offer the best quality and reliability we can, but not all drive failures

are due to manufacturing faults.

What happens if the failure is due to shock in the integration process? Or due

to some harsh environment such as high temperature in your cabinet or your

customers system? Handling these drives is costing you money, and you

need to know what the problem is as soon as possible to prevent recurrance.

Also, not all drives rejected from your process or returned by your customers

will be faulty. Every time a drive is falsely rejected from your production line

or every time you handle a drive that is returned from a customer, it costs you

money. This is where the other challenge to our QA laboratory comes in to

play, that of warranty cost reduction , analysing returns and providing

integrators and users alike with diagnostic tools to ensure that only genuinely

faulty drives are returned.

This significantly reduces the true cost of ownership of Fujitsu drives so even

at equal purchase price, Fujitsu can still be a lower cost option.

4



Customer Commitment

As a demonstration of Fujitsu s commitment to our disk drive customers, wehave installed a ‘state of the art‘ Quality Assurance Laboratory. We are ableto perform tear down analysis of hard disk drives and are unique in offeringthis customer focused laboratory within the European market place.

Analytical Capability

Our Quality Assurance Laboratorycan provide analysis techniques suchas Optical Microscopy, field emissionScanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)coupled with Energy Dispersive X-ray(EDX) analysis and FourierTransform Infra Red (FTIR)microscopy. This gives the QualityAssurance Laboratory the ability toimage samples at up to 800,000xmagnification and permit analysis ofmaterials from metals to polymers.

We have recently added to thisalready impressive array ofinstrumentation,Gas ChromatographyMass Spectrometry (GCMS),

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM),Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM)and will soon add a ChemicalMicroscope (SIMS analysis). Othertechniques such as anechoic andenvironmental chambers are alsoplanned.

The Field Emission ScanningElectron Microscope (SEM)

Optical Microscopes

These techniques have expanded theQuality Assurance Laboratory scapabilities to include imagingsurfaces at up to 10,000,000xmagnification, analysis andidentification of complex organicmixtures, imaging of magneticdomains and analysis of surface films(less than 10 nm thick).

As disk drive technology advanceswe will constantly monitor and modifyour analytical requirements.

To demonstrate the complex nature of

disk drive technology the images show

the relationship in size between a

household fly and a GMR read/write

head.

The first image shows a fly looking

down at a GMR head.

The subsequent two Images show the

fly s eye magnified with the GMR read

element superimposed at the same

magnification. This is the part of the

head that actually reads the data. The

rest of the head, the slider, as seen in

the first image serves only to provide a

stable flying platform for the read/write

element.

The technology utilised with disk drives

is constantly advancing with increased

storage per platter, reducing track

widths and lower head flying height. A

key role of the Quality Assurance

Laboratory is to assist Fujitsu drive

manufacturing in solving customer

quality issues rapidly to ensure a

‘constant quality evolution‘ of Fujitsu s

disk drive products.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Fujitsu s primary strength is our products, but it does not end there. Fujitsu

offers some of the best technical support and customer care in the industry.

How do we know? Because our customers tell us.

Integrators for Fujitsu Enterprise HDD drives have access to the same

support team as our major OEM customers. As a new customer taking one

of our special Enterprise HDD evaluation packs you have the option of

having a Fujitsu engineer visit, delivering the evaluation units, telling your

integrator and R & D staff about them and reviewing your system and

integration process to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

As evaluation and ongoing business develops you can continue to call on

that same technical resource to solve any problem at any time.

FUJITSU MAN SERIES DELIVERS BEST 10K PERFORMANCE FOR SERVERS!

SCSI Hard Drive: Overall Performance (WinMark 99 Tests)

In their comparative review of desktop hard drives, PC Magazine found Fujitsu’sMAN3367MP was fastest drive in their tests, yet still managed to offer the bestvalue for money of all the SCSI drives reviewed.

"The Fujitsu MAN3367MP is the best performing drive overall and although it is notthe cheapest product we tested for this feature, it is a deserving winner of ourEditors' Choice" award for SCSI drives. The drive, which uses the Ultra 160 SCSIinterface has a formatted capacity of 34.22GB spread over two platters.

Unusually there are two sets of pin connectors - the additional one being at the rearfor connecting LEDs and other indicators to an enclosure. There is also a jumperarray on the underside for SCSI configuration, including SCSI ID, write protectionand narrow or wide SCSI settings. This 10K rpm drive has an unusual notcheddesign, and is rated at 1,200,000 hours MTBF, with a five year componentguarantee.

If you need a new SCSI drive, it will be difficult to find a better product than theFujitsu MAN3367MP.

Fujitsu s MAM series goes head-to-head with the Cheetah X15-36LP, directlychallenging the hegemony carved out by Seagate s newest dynasty. In addition toits 15,000 RPM spindle speed, the MAM3367 features a specified seek time of 3.5milliseconds, the lowest yet for a 36GB 15k RPM drive. It packs 9 gigs perplatter...exceeding Big Blue’s by 50%. Fujitsu equips the MAM with 8 megabytesof buffer...doubling IBM.”

With a WinBench 99 measured access time of 6.0 milliseconds, the MAM virtuallymatches the X15-36LP.”

The Fujitsu inner-zone rates come in at 44.8MB/sec, virtually the same asSeagate’s drive.”

“The MAM is a decent first effort (superior to the Ultrastar 36Z15 overall). The

MAM turns in the highest IOMeter file server index recorded to date. The

MAM also, unlike the Ultrastar 36Z15, matches Seagate spec-for-spec...no

compromises were made in areal density or buffer size.”

POWER REQUIREMENTS

The table below indicates the AL7 SCSI Power Requirements under 4 differentoperating modes.

1. Idle condition is defined as spinning but not seeking

2. Start-up condition is defined as the sustained current during spin-up. Thisdoes not include the short-term peak, see Note 1 for details.

3. Random W/R condition is defined as operation with a duty cycle of 80 I/Ooperations per second.

4. Worst case seek is a 1/3 stroke with 0 ms interval.

Note 1: The peak 12V current during the first 100 s of start-up is less than 3.0Afor all drives, the spin-up time is 30 seconds (Typical).

Note 2: Drive Models are:
