5.3 Host Commands

SMART self-test

The host computer can issue the SMART Execute Off-line Immediate sub- command (FR Register = D4h) and cause the device to execute a self-test. When the self-test is completed, the device saves the SMART self-test log to the disk medium.

The host computer can issue the SMART Read Log Sector sub-command (FR Register = D5h, SN Register = 06h, SC register = 01h) and can read the SMART self-test log.
