Maxtor 10K III manual Verify Error Recovery Page-Page, Sense command, since the page is savable

SCSI Description

￿￿￿￿￿￿￿￿8GTKH[The￿'TTQTVerify￿4GEQXGT[Error Recovery￿2CIG￿￿￿￿PageJ￿controls the drive’s response to error conditions that arise during the VERIFY command and during the verify operation of the WRITE AND VERIFY command. The Verify Error Recovery Page is not supported in the SCSI-1/CCS Operating Mode. The data format and field descriptions are described in Table 5-68and Table 5-69respectively.

status for recovered errors, sets the sense key to RECOVERED ERROR, and

posts the appropriate additional sense code.

cases where error recovery is invoked and is successful. The only recoverable

error that can occur during a VERIFY operation is a failed read that succeeds af-

ter retries.
