BOUNDARY	2 OFFSET BOUNDARY	BUFFER OFFSETS
0	20=1	Byte boundaries
1	21=2	Even-byte boundaries

3	23=8	Eight-byte boundaries
4	24=16	16-byte boundaries
5	25=32	32-byte boundaries

** NOTE **

1.A buffer may be altered between the WRITE BUFFER and READ BUFFER commands by execution of commands from another initiator or background diagnostics. Buffer testing applications may avoid buffer usage conflicts with other initiators by use of linked command, or by reserving the addressed LUN.

2.There is only one 512-byte NVRAM area available. This area may be accessed by any initiator. The NVRAM is not partitioned into “per initiator” areas.
