(8)Command queuing feature
The IDD can queue maximum 128 commands, and optimizes the issuing order of queued commands by the reordering function. This feature realizes the high speed processing.
(9)Reserve and release functions
The IDD can be accessed exclusively in the
(10)Error recovery
The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus or the disk drive using its powerful retry processing. If a recoverable data check occurs,
(11)Automatic alternate block reassignment
If a defective data block is detected during read or write the IDD can automatically reassign its alternate data block.
(12)Programmable data block length
Data can be accessed in
IMPORTANT
Error rate increase
1.The drive format at factory shipment is generally 512 byte.
2.The Recoverable Error of the drive might increase when the format would be modified from 512 bytes to the following values: 516 bytes, 520 bytes, 524 bytes, 528 bytes.
3.The Recoverable Error referred to here is sense data
(13)Defective block slipping
A logical data block can be reallocated in a physical sequence by slipping the defective data block at formatting. This results in high speed contiguous data block processing without a revolution delay due to defective data block.
(14)High speed positioning
A rotary voice coil motor achieves fast positioning.
