Function

 

 

X’D0’

SMART Read Attribute Values:

 

A device that received this subcommand asserts the BSY bit and saves all

 

the updated attribute values. The device then clears the BSY bit and

 

transfers 512-byte attribute value information to the host.

 

* For infomation about the format of the attribute value information, see

 

Table 5.8.

 

 

X’D1’

SMART Read Attribute Thresholds:

 

This subcommand is used to transfer 512-byte insurance failure threshold

 

value data to the host.

 

* For infomation about the format of the insurance failure threshold value

 

data, see Table 5.9.

 

 

X’D2’

SMART Enable-Disable Attribute AutoSave:

 

This subcommand is used to enable (SC register 00h) or disable (SC

 

register = 00h) the setting of the automatic saving feature for the device

 

attribute data. The setting is maintained every time the device is turned off

 

and then on. When the automatic saving feature is enabled, the attribute

 

values are saved before the device enters the power saving mode. However,

 

if the failure prediction feature is disabled, the attribute values are not

 

automatically saved.

 

When the device receives this subcommand, it asserts the BSY bit, enables

 

or disables the automatic saving feature, then clears the BSY bit.

 

 

X’D3’

SMART Save Attribute Values:

 

When the device receives this subcommand, it asserts the BSY bit, saves

 

device attribute value data, then clears the BSY bit.

 

 

X’D8’

SMART Enable Operations:

 

This subcommand enables the failure prediction feature. The setting is

 

maintained even when the device is turned off and then on.

 

When the device receives this subcommand, it asserts the BSY bit, enables

 

the failure prediction feature, then clears the BSY bit.

 

 

X’D9’

SMART Disable Operations:

 

This subcommand disables the failure prediction feature. The setting is

 

maintained even when the device is turned off and then on.

 

When the device receives this subcommand, it asserts the BSY bit, disables

 

the failure prediction feature, then clears the BSY bit.
