SET MAX ADDRESS

A successful READ NATIVE MAX ADDRESS command shall immediately precede a SET MAX ADDRESS command.

This command allows the maximum address accessible by the user to be set in LBA or CHS mode. Upon receipt of the command, the device sets the BSY bit and saves the maximum address specified in the DH, CH, CL and SN registers. Then, it clears BSY and generates an interrupt.

The new address information set by this command is reflected in Words 1, 54, 57, 58, 60 and 61 of IDENTIFY DEVICE information. If an attempt is made to perform a read or write operation for an address beyond the new address space, an ID Not Found error will result.

When SC register bit 0, VV (Value Volatile), is 1, the value set by this command is held even after power on and the occurrence of a hard reset. When the VV bit is 0, the value set by this command becomes invalid when the power is turned on or a hard reset occurs, and the maximum address returns to the value most lately set when VV bit = 1. (The value by VV bit = 0 is held in case that this command with VV bit = 1 has not been issued or had set the default value, and hard reset occurs.)

After power on and the occurrence of a hard reset, the host can issue this command only once when VV bit = 1. If this command with VV bit = 1 is issued twice or more, any command following the first time will result in an Aborted Command error.

When the SET MAX ADDRESS EXT command is executed, all SET MAX ADRESS commands are aborted. The address value returns to the origin when the SET MAX ADDRESS EXT command is executed using the address value returned by the READ NATIVE MAX ADDRESS command.

MHV2040AH, MHV2080AH, MHV2060AH, MHV2100AH specifications

The Fujitsu MHV series of hard disk drives, specifically the MHV2060AH, MHV2080AH, MHV2100AH, and MHV2040AH, are renowned for their reliability and performance in the mobile HDD segment. Designed primarily for use in laptops and other portable devices, these drives integrate cutting-edge technologies to meet the demands of today's data-intensive applications.

One of the hallmark features of the MHV series is its high data density, allowing for substantial storage capabilities in compact sizes. The MHV2060AH offers a storage capacity of 60 GB, while the MHV2080AH and MHV2100AH offer 80 GB and 100 GB respectively. The MHV2040AH provides a slightly more modest but still robust 40 GB of storage. This range of capacities ensures that users can select the model that best fits their storage needs.

The drives utilize the latest perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) technology, which enhances recording efficiency and increases data storage densities. This technology significantly optimizes the use of disk surface area, providing better performance and more reliable data access. Additionally, the MHV series incorporates an advanced actuator system that ensures precision head positioning, enhancing data integrity and reducing error rates during read and write operations.

In terms of performance, the MHV series maintains a revolutions per minute (RPM) rating of 5400, which strikes a balance between speed and energy efficiency, making these drives suitable for low-power applications. The drives are also designed with a low acoustic level, generating minimal noise during operation—a crucial factor for mobile users who prefer quieter devices.

Furthermore, the Fujitsu MHV series features a robust shock resistance design, allowing them to withstand the rigors of mobile computing. This makes them suitable for use in portable environments subject to vibration and physical movement, thus ensuring data security and drive longevity.

Overall, the Fujitsu MHV2060AH, MHV2080AH, MHV2100AH, and MHV2040AH represent a formidable selection of mobile hard disk drives filled with advanced technologies and features, making them well-suited for a wide range of applications in today's fast-paced digital world. With their combination of storage capacity, performance, and durability, these drives continue to serve as reliable solutions for users seeking efficient data storage in portable formats.
