The Rewind command first ensures that all buffered write data has been transferred to the medium, then causes the device to position to BOP of the current partition.

The DSC bit is reset (0) after this command is accepted and is set (1) when the drive is ready to write at BOP0 (or encountered a hardware error). REQUEST SENSE can then be used to verify successful command completion.
