Travelstar 5K160 (SATA) Hard Disk Drive Specification
12 General Operation Descriptions
12.1 Reset Response
There are three types of reset in ATA as follows:
The device executes a series of electrical circuitry diagnostics, spins up the HDA, tests speed and other mechanical parametric, and sets default values. COMRESET is issued in Serial ATA bus.
The device resets the interface circuitry as well as Soft Reset. SRST bit in the Device Control Register is set, then is reset.
The device resets the interface circuitry according to the Set Features requirement.
The actions of each reset are shown in “Reset Response Table” on Page 5

Note.
(*1) Execute after the data in write cache has been written.
(*2) Default value on POR is shown in “Default Register Values” on Page 5.
(*3) The Set Features command with Feature register = CCh enables the device to revert these parameters to the power on defaults.
(*4) In the case of sleep mode, the device goes to standby mode. In other case, the device does not change current mode.
(*5) According to the initial power mode selection.
(*6) See 5.15 Software Setting Preservation feature.
