 Jumper Setting
 ==============

 The C/D jumper is used to determine whether the drive is a master
 (drive C) or a slave (drive D). The drive is configured as a master,
 when jumpered, and a slave when not jumpered.


 Master/Standalone
 -----------------
  C/D     CS
    x  o  o      C/D CLOSED
    X  o  o


 Slave
 -----
  C/D     CS
    o  o  o      All OPEN
    o  o  o


 Cable Select Master or Slave
 ----------------------------
  C/D     CS
    o  o  x      CS CLOSED Cable Select Option enabled
    o  o  X

 When using CS option, the C/D jumper MUST be open


 All other pins are reserved and should not be used.


 Master/Slave Configuration
 --------------------------
 When two drives are daisy-chained on the host interface, one must be
 designated at the master drive (C: drive) and one as the slave drive
 (D: drive). Commands from the host are written in parallel to both
 drives.

 When the C/D jumper on the drive is closed, the drive will assume the
 role of a master. When C/D is open, the drive will act as a slave. In
 single-drive configurations, C/D must remain in the closed (master)
 position.

 For each command sent from the host, the DRV bit in the drive/head
 register selects the master or the slave drive. When the DRV bit is
 reset (0), the master drive is selected, and when the DRV bit is set
 (1), the slave drive is selected.

 Once the drives receive the command, only the drive with jumper C/D
 set to the appropriate position will execute the command. For
 example, if the DRV bit is set, only the slave drive (jumper C/D
 open) will execute the command.

 NOTE
 If the command is a diagnostic command, both drives will execute the
 command and the slave will report its status to the master via the
 Host PDIAG signal.

 Drive selection always refers to the state of the DRV bit in the
 Device/Head register and the position of the position of the C/D
 jumper throughout this manual.


 Cable Select
 ------------
 This optional method of drive master/slave designation can be enabled
 by jumper selection as described below. If used, special cabling can
 be used to selectively ground the CSEL interface signal of the
 drive intended to be drive C (0). This drive will then function as
 the master. If CSEL is allowed to float the drive will recognize it-
 self as drive D (1) and function as the slave.

 Mounting the Drive
 ------------------
 You can mount the drive either vertically or horizontally. The drive
 will meet all performance specifications when mounted at any orienta-
 tion.

 CAUTION
 The surface(s) on which you mount the drive should be flat and
 paralled to prevent uneven pressure on the drive. Mounting the drive
 on an uneven surface could cause the drive's base to deform, degrad-
 ing drive performance.

 CAUTION
 When using the side mounting holes, verify the screw length to ensure
 clearance from the drive's printed circuit board before tightening
 the screw.


 Signal Levels
 -------------
 All signal levels are TTL compatible. A logic "1" is > 2.0 Volts. A
 logic "0" is from 0.00 Volts to 0.70 Volts.


 Read/Write Heads and Disks
 --------------------------
 Data is recorded on 95mm diameter disks through thin film or MIG
 heads.

 The CFS635A contains two disks with three data surfaces and three
 read/write heads.

 The CFS850A contains:

 - two disks with four data surfaces

 - four read/write heads

 The CFS1275A contains:

 - three data surfaces with six data surfaces

 - six read/write heads

 At power-down, the heads are automatically retracted to the inner
 diameter of the disk and are latched and parked on a landing zone
 that is inside the data tracks.


 Attaching a Data Cable to the Drive
 -----------------------------------
 Attach the data cable from the host to the Task File Interface
 connector.

 CAUTION
 Do not route the data/power cable next to the drive PCB or any other
 high frequency or large current switching signals. Improper drive
 operation can result from improper cable routing.

 The recommended mating connector for the Task File Interface is
 Molex P/N 15-47-5401 or equivalent. You may daisy-chain two drives on
 this connector. The maximum cable length is 18 inches.

 Overview of the Drives
 ----------------------
 The Conner Filepro Series CFS635A/CFS850A and CFS1275A are enhanced
 IDE, low-profile hard disk drives that are designed to operate with
 an IBM PC/AT or equivalent host computer system in translate mode.

 The drive provides these features:

 - Can be installed in a wide range of host systems

 - Task File emulation and ATA compatibility allows installation
   in a wide range of host systems

 - High performance rotary voice coil actuator with embedded servoing
   eliminate the need for T-cal

 - 1/7 Run length limited code

 - High shock resistance

 - Sealed HDA

 - Automatic actuator latch against inner stop upon power-down

 - Microprocessor-controlled diagnostics routines that are auto-
   matically executed at start-up.

 - 64 segmentable cache buffer

 - Read Look Ahead and selectable Write Caching

 - Automatic error correction and retries, ECC on the fly

 - supports ATA Standard PIO Mode 4 and DMA Mode 2

 - Block size 512 bytes

 - supports both CHS and LBA addressing

 - Allows daisy-chaining up to two drives on the AT interface

 - Auto-Translate (Universal Translate)

 - 4-byte ECC diagnostic check in read/write


 Firmware
 --------
 The drive's firmware includes a command set which the host uses to
 control the drive. The command set allows the host to request the
 following types of actions:

 - report drive status

 - seek a specific point on the disk

 - read and write data


 Universal Translate Mode
 ------------------------
 Conner has established a Universal Translate Mode which enables the
 user to configure the drive in an AT environment to any cylinder,
 head, and sector configuration desired. The translate configuration
 is limited only by the maximum capacity of the drive. Upon initial
 power up to the drive it will default to a configuration shown below:

          Cylinders        Heads       Sectors
 CFS635A    1238            16           63
 CFS850A    1651            16           63
 CFS1275A   2477            16           63

 After the drive is ready, the host system may issue INIT DRIVE PARMS
 COMMAND (command code 91hex) to alter the translate configuration
 (number of heads and number of sectors per track). The drive will
 then:

 - calculate the total number of available logical tracks based upon
   the entered sector and head values

 - save the drive parameters in non-volatile memory for subsequent
   drive operations


 Seek Times
 ----------

       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |         track to track      max. |   3 ms |
       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |               Average msec.      |  14    |
       |               Average msec. max. |  26    |
       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |Latency                msec. avg. |   8.33 |
       +----------------------------------+--------+

       The timing is measured through the interface with the drive
       operating at nominal DC input voltages. The timing also assumes
       that:
             - BIOS and PC system hardware dependency have been
               subtracted from timing measurements.


       The average seek time is determined by averaging the seek time
       for a minimum of 1000 seeks of random length over the surface
       of the disk.


 Head Positioning Mechanism
 --------------------------
 The two read/write heads are supported by a mechanism coupled to a
 rotary voice coil actuator.


 Task File Interface Signal Connector Pin 28
 -------------------------------------------
 Pin 28 Cable Select (I/O)
 Cable Select is functional when the C/S jumper is inserted, which
 routes the C/D select to this pin. When set high, drive D: is
 selelcted; when set low, drive C: is selected.


 Error Correction
 ----------------
 The drives use a Reed-Solomon code to perform error detection and
 correction. For each 512-byte block, the software error correction
 polynominal is capable of correcting:

 - one error burst up to 22 bits

 - two error burst up to 11 bits each

 Single bursts of 11 bits or less are corrected on the fly (OTF) with
 no performance degradation.


 Execute Drive Diagnostic
 ------------------------
 Command Number: 90 hex

 Description
 This command performs the internal diagnostic tests implemented by
 the drive. The diagnostic tests are only executed upon receipt of
 this command.

 The drive sets BSY immediately upon of the command. If the drive is a
 master, the drive performs the diagnostic tests and saves the
 results. It then checks to see if a slave drive is present and waits
 up to 5 seconds for the slave to complete its diagnostics. If the
 slave successfully completes its diagostics, it asserts -HOST PDIAG.
 If unsuccessful, the master drive resets BSY in the Status register
 and generates an interrupt. The Error bit (ERR) is set in the Status
 register and the Error register is updated.

 The value in the Error register should be viewed as a unique 8-bit
 code and not as the single-bit flags defined previously. The inter-
 face registers are set to initial values except for the Error
 register.

 The table below details the codes in the Error register and a
 corresponding explanation.

 Error Code    Description
 01 hex        No error detected
 02 hex        Format device error
 03 hex        Sector buffer error
 8x hex        Slave drive failed

 Additional codes may be implemented at the manufacturer's option.

 NOTE
 If the slave drive fails diagnostics, the master drive shall "OR" 80
 hex with its own status and load that code into the Error register.
 If the slave drive passes diaagnostics or there is no slave drive
 connected, the master drive shall sect bit 7 of the Error register
 Task File to 0.
