5.3 Host Commands

(6) WRITE VERIFY (X’3C’)

This command operates similarly to the WRITE SECTOR(S) command except that the device verifies each sector immediately after being written. The verify operation is a read and check for data errors without data transfer. Any error that is detected during the verify operation is posted.

After all sectors are verified, the last interruption (INTRQ for command termination) is generated.
