10.1 Alternate Status Register Table 39: Alternate Status Register This register contains the same information as the Status Register. The only difference between this register and the Status Register is that reading the Alternate Status Register does not imply an interrupt acknowledge or a clear of a pending interrupt.
10.4 Device Control Register Table 40: Device Control Register SRST -IEN Definitions HOB (high order byte) is defined by the 48-bit Address feature set. A write to any Command Register shall clear the HOB bit to zero. SRST (RST) Software Reset. The device is held at reset when RST = 1. Setting RST = 0 again enables the device.
10.6 Device Register Table 42: Device Head/Register This register contains the device and head numbers. Definitions Binary encoded address mode select. When L = 0, addressing is by CHS mode. When L = 1, addressing is by LBA mode. Device. When DRV = 0, device 0 (Master) is selected. When DRV = 1, device 1 (Slave) is selected.
10.8 Features Register This register is command specific. This register is used with the Set Features command, the S.M.A.R.T. Function Set command, and the Format Unit command. 10.9 LBA High Register This register contains Bits 16-23. At the end of the command this register is updated to reflect the current LBA Bits 16-23.
10.13 Status Register Table 44: Status Register DRDY CORR This register contains the device status. The contents of this register are updated whenever an error occurs and at the completion of each command. If the host reads this register when an interrupt is pending, it is considered to be the interrupt acknowledge. Any pending interrupt is cleared whenever this register is read.
11.0 General 11.1 Reset response ATA has the following three types of resets: The device executes a series of electrical circuitry diagnostics, spins up the Power On Reset (POR) head disk assembly, tests speed and other mechanical parametric, and sets default values.
11.2 Register initialization After a power on, a hard reset, or a software reset, the register values are initialized as shown in the table below. Table 46: Default Register Values Register Default Value Error Diagnostic Code Sector Count LBA Low LBA Mid LBA High Device...
11.3 Diagnostic and Reset considerations The Set Max password, the Set Max security mode and the Set Max unlock counter are not retained over a Power On Reset but are retained over a Hard Reset or Soft Reset. For each Reset and Execute Device Diagnostic, the diagnostic is done as follows: Power On DASP–...
11.4 Power-off considerations 11.4.1 Load/Unload Load/Unload is a functional mechanism of the hard disk drive and is controlled by the drive microcode. Specifically, unloading of the heads is invoked by the following commands. Table 49: Device behavior by ATA command Command Response Standby...
You may then turn off the drive by doing the following steps: 1. Issue Standby Immediate or sleep command 2. Wait until COMMAND COMPLETE STATUS is returned. (It may take up to 350 ms in a typical case.) 3. Terminate power to drive This power-down sequence should be followed for entry into any system power-down state, system suspend state, or system hibernation state.
11.6 Power management features The power management feature set permits a host to modify the behavior in a manner which reduces the power required to operate. The power management feature set provides a set of commands and a timer that enables a device to implement low power consumption modes.
11.6.4 Standby timer The standby timer provides a method for the device to automatically enter standby mode from either active or idle mode following a host programmed period of inactivity. If the device is in the active or idle mode, the device waits for the specified time period and if no command is received, the device automatically enters the standby mode.
increase with increasing advanced power management levels. The advanced power management levels contain discrete bands, described in the section of Set Feature command in detail. This feature set uses the following functions: • A SET FEATURES subcommand to enable Advanced Power Management •...
11.8 S.M.A.R.T. Function The intent of Self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology (S.M.A.R.T.) is to protect user data and prevent unscheduled system downtime that may be caused by predictable degradation and/or fault of the device. By monitoring and storing critical performance and calibration parameters, S.M.A.R.T. devices employ sophisticated data analysis algorithms to predict the likelihood of near-term degradation or fault condition.
11.8.6 S.M.A.R.T. operation with power management modes The device saves attribute values automatically on every head unload timing except the emergency unload, even if the attribute auto save feature is not enabled. The head unload is done not only by Standby, Standby Immediate, Sleep command, and Hard Reset, but also by the automatic power saving functions such as ABLE-3 or Standby timer.
11.9.3 Password This function can have two types of passwords as described below. Master Password When the Master Password is set, the device does NOT enable the Device Lock Function, and the device CANNOT be locked with the Master Password, but the Master Password can be used for unlocking the locked device.
Page 90
11.9.4.3 Operation from POR after user password is set When Device Lock Function is enabled, the device rejects media access command until a Security Unlock command is successfully completed. Device Locked mode Unlock CMD Erase Prepare Media Access Non-media Access Command (*1) Command (*1) Erase Unit...
Page 91
11.9.4.4 User Password lost If the User Password is forgotten and High level security is set, the system user cannot access any data. However the device can be unlocked using the Master Password. If a system user forgets the User Password and Maximum security level is set, data access is impossible. However the device can be unlocked using the Security Erase Unit command to unlock the device and erase all user data with the Master Password.
11.9.5 Command table This table shows the device's response to commands when the Security Mode Feature Set (Device lock function) is enabled. Table 51: Command table for device lock operation Device Mode Device Mode Command Command Locked Unlocked Frozen Locked Unlocked Frozen Check Power Mode...
11.10 Protected Area Function Protected Area Function provides a protected area which cannot be accessed via conventional methods. This protected area is used to contain critical system data such as BIOS or system management information. The contents of the entire system main memory may also be dumped into the protected area to resume after a system power off. The LBA/CYL changed by the following commands affects the Identify Device Information.
From this point the protected area cannot be accessed until the next Set Max ADDRESS command is issued. Any BIOS, device driver, or application software accesses the device as if it is a 528 MB device because the device behaves like a 528 MB device. 3.
The password, the Set Max security mode, and the unlock counter do not persist over a power cycle but they persist over a hardware or software reset. NOTE: If this command is immediately preceded by a Read Native MAX ADDRESS command, it shall be interpreted as a Set Max ADDRESS command regardless of Feature register value.
Figure 6: Device address map before and after Set Feature 11.11.2 Identify Device Data Identify Device data, word 83, bit 7 indicates the device supports the Address Offset Feature. Identify Device data, word 86, bit 7 indicates the device is in Address Offset mode. 11.11.3 Exceptions in Address Offset Mode Any commands which access sectors across the original native maximum LBA are rejected with error, even if the access protection is removed by a Set Max Address command.
11.12 Seek Overlap The drive provides accurate seek time measurement method. The seek command is usually used to measure the device seek time by accumulating execution time for a number of seek commands. With typical implementation of the seek command, this measurement must include the device and host command overhead. To eliminate this overhead, the drive overlaps the seek command as described below.
11.14 Reassign Function The Reassign Function is used with read commands and write commands. The sectors of data for reassignment are prepared as the spare data sector. The one entry can register 256 consecutive sectors maximum. This reassignment information is registered internally, and the information is available right after completing the reassign function.
11.15 48-bit Address Feature Set The 48-bit Address feature set allows devices with capacities up to 281,474,976,710,655 sectors. This allows device capacity up to 144,115,188,075,855,360 bytes. In addition, the number of sectors that may be transferred by a single command are increased by increasing the allowable sector count to 16 bits. The following commands unique to the 48-bit Address feature set: •...

12.0 Command protocol The commands are grouped into different classes according to the protocols followed for command execution. The command classes with their associated protocols are defined below. For all commands, the host must first check to see if BSY = 1, and should proceed no further unless and until BSY = 0.
f. The device sets DRQ = 0 after the sector (or block) has been transferred to the host. 4. For the Read Long command: a. The device sets BSY = 1 and prepares for data transfer. b. When the sector of data is available for transfer to the host, the device sets BSY = 0 and DRQ=1 and interrupts the host.
• Write Sector(s) • Write Sector(s) EXT • Write Verify Execution includes the transfer of one or more 512 byte (> 512 bytes on Write Long) sectors of data from the host to the device. 1. The host writes any required parameters to the Features, Sector Count, LBA, and Device Registers. 2.
12.4 DMA Data Transfer commands: The following are DMA Data Transfer commands: • Read DMA • Read DMA EXT • Write DMA • Write DMA EXT Data transfers using DMA commands differ in two ways from PIO transfers: • Data transfers are performed using the Slave DMA channel •...

This command disables the security mode feature (device lock function), however, the master password is still stored internally within the device and may be reactivated later when a new user password is set. If you execute this command on disabling the security mode feature (device lock function), the password sent by the host is NOT compared with the Master Password and the User Password.
Page 165
Security Level A zero indicates a High level, a one indicates a Maximum level. If the host sets the High level and the password is forgotten then the Master Password can be used to unlock the device. If the host sets the Maximum level and the user password is forgotten, only a Security Erase Prepare/Security Unit command can unlock the device and all data will be lost.

13.39.1 S.M.A.R.T. Function Subcommands 13.39.1.1 S.M.A.R.T. Read Attribute Values (subcommand D0h) This subcommand returns the device's Attribute Values to the host. Upon receipt of the S.M.A.R.T. Read Attribute Values subcommand from the host, the device asserts BSY, saves any updated Attribute Values to the Attribute Data sectors, asserts DRQ, clears BSY, asserts INTRQ, and then waits for the host to transfer the 512 bytes of Attribute Value information from the device via the Data Register.
13.39.1.5 S.M.A.R.T. Execute Off-line Immediate (subcommand D4h) This subcommand causes the device to immediately initiate the set of activities that collect Attribute data in an off- line mode (off-line routine) or execute a self-test routine in either captive or off-line mode. The LBA Low register shall be set to specify the operation to be executed.
Page 180
After the scan of the selected spans described above, a user may wish to have the rest of media read scanned as an off-line scan. In this case, the user shall set the flag to enable off-line scan in addition to the other settings. If an error occurs during the scanning of the test spans, the error is reported in the self-test execution status in the SMART READ DATA response and the off-line scan is not executed.

13.39.1.7 S.M.A.R.T. Read Log Sector (subcommand D5h) This command returns the specified log sector contents to the host. The 512 bytes of data are returned at a command and the Sector Count value shall be set to one. The LBA Low shall be set to specify the log sector address.
Page 182
13.39.1.11 S.M.A.R.T. Return Status (subcommand DAh) This subcommand is used to communicate the reliability status of the device to the host's request. Upon receipt of the S.M.A.R.T. Return Status subcommand the device asserts BSY, saves any updated Attribute Values to the reserved sector, and compares the updated Attribute Values to the Attribute Thresholds.
13.39.2 Device Attribute Data Structure The following defines the 512 bytes that make up the Attribute Value information. This data structure is accessed by the host in its entirety using the S.M.A.R.T. Read Attribute Values subcommand. All multibyte fields shown in these data structures follow the ATA/ATAPI-6 specification for byte ordering, namely, that the least significant byte occupies the lowest numbered byte address location in the field.
13.39.2.2 Individual Attribute Data Structure The following defines the 12 bytes that make up the information for each Attribute entry in the Device Attribute Data Structure. Description Byte Offset Value Attribute ID Number (01h to FFh) binary Status Flags bit flags Bit 0 Pre-Failure/Advisory Bit 1...
Table 116: Status Flag definitions Flag Name Definition Pre-Failure/ If bit = 0, an Attribute Value less than or equal to its Advisory bit corresponding Attribute Threshold indicates an Advisory condition where the usage or age of the device has exceeded its intended design life period.
13.39.2.4 Self-test execution status Definition Percent Self-test remaining. An approximation of the percent of the self-test routine remaining until completion given in ten percent increments. Valid values are 0 through 9. Current Self-test execution status. 0 The self-test routine completed without error or has never been run. 1 The self-test routine was aborted by the host.

13.39.3 Device Attribute Thresholds data structure The following defines the 512 bytes that make up the Attribute Threshold information. This data structure is accessed by the host in its entirety using the S.M.A.R.T. Read Attribute Thresholds. All multibyte fields shown in these data structures follow the ATA/ATAPI-6 specification for byte ordering, that is, that the least significant byte occupies the lowest numbered byte address location in the field.
13.39.3.3 Attribute ID Numbers Attribute ID Numbers supported by the device are the same as Attribute Values Data Structures. 13.39.3.4 Attribute Threshold These values are preset at the factory and are not meant to be changeable. However, the host might use the "S.M.A.R.T.
13.39.4 S.M.A.R.T. Log Directory Table 118 defines the 512 bytes that make up the S.M.A.R.T. Log Directory. The S.M.A.R.T. Log Directory is on S.M.A.R.T. Log Address zero and is defined as one sector long. Table 119: S.M.A.R.T. Log Directory Description Bytes Offset S.M.A.R.T.
