Internal Product Review
The 5A5600.07 is a 5A5 hard disk drive with an IDE/ATAPI (UDMA33) interface and a 5,140 rpm rotation rate. A 2 MB buffer capacity and 110 ms access time support steady data handling in legacy B & R automation platforms. Integrated CD-RW functionality and low 0.25 W standby power add useful service flexibility for control cabinets.

Product Description:
The industrial storage module 5A5600.07 belongs to the 5A5 Hard Disks series from B&R Automation. It combines magnetic, optical, and floppy media in a single cartridge so PC-based controllers can store boot files, software images, and line-side data logs without external drives. Within an automation rack, the unit operates as an IDE/ATAPI slave and provides removable media access for loading updates, archiving records, and moving small files between systems.
Primary hard-disk access is governed by a seek time of 110 ms, and sustained transfers average 3.7 MB/s. A separate 2 MB buffer helps smooth read bursts between the spindle and the system bus, while the magnetic platter rotates at 5,140 rpm. The IDE / ATAPI (UDMA33) interface supports burst cycles up to 33 MB/s, so the mechanical storage section remains the main limit on hard-disk throughput. Optical media support is provided by a CD-RW drive that records or rewrites at 4× and reads pressed discs at 24×, which corresponds to a peak transfer rate of 3.6 MB/s for CD playback. A 3.5-inch bay carries the floppy section, giving the system a 1.44 MB DOS-formatted path for BIOS updates or small recipe files. In standby, the electronics draw only 0.25 W, which helps reduce enclosure power demand when the controller is idle.
Mechanical tolerance is important in factory cabinets that are exposed to vibration and handling. During operation, the drive withstands shocks of 5 G / 11 ms without data loss, and it tolerates handling shocks up to 60 G / 11 ms before installation. Active writing draws a maximum of 5.5 W, and that load should be included in the cabinet's 24 V supply calculation. These values are relevant when the module is installed near moving machinery or in cabinets that may be transported between production areas.
