Field

Description

Value

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Parameters Savable. This bit is only used with the MODE SENSE command. A re-

PS

0

turned value of 1 indicates that the target is capable of saving the page in a non-

volatile, vendor-specific location. The bit is reserved with the MODE SELECT

 

 

 

 

command.

 

 

 

Buffer Full

 

The Buffer Full Ratio indicates how full the buffer should be prior to requesting an

0

interconnect tenancy. Applies to READ operations only. The default of 0 indicates

Ratio

 

to the drive that it should use its default ratio.

 

 

 

 

 

Buffer Empty

 

The Buffer Empty Ratio indicates how full the buffer should be prior to requesting

0

an interconnect tenancy. Applies to READ operations only. The default of 0 indi-

Ratio

 

cates to the drive that it should use its default ratio. Not supported by the drive.

 

 

 

 

 

Bus Inactivity

0

The Bus Inactivity Limit indicates the maximum duration of any interconnect ten-

Limit

ancy during which no data is transferred. Not supported by the drive.

 

 

 

The Disconnect Time Limit specifies the minimum time, in 100 microsecond in-

Disconnect

 

crements, that the drive waits after releasing the SCSI bus before reselecting. The

0

drive supports a maximum value of 0xFF. Values greater than 0xFF are treated as

Time Limit

 

0xFF. The default value of 0 indicates that the drive can reslect immediately after

 

 

 

 

releasing the bus.

 

 

 

Connect Time

0

The Connect Time Limit indicates the maximum duration of a single interconnect

Limit

tenancy. Not supported by the drive.

 

 

 

The Maximum Burst Size

 

 

specifies the maximum amount of data that the drive will transfer during a data

Maximum Burst

 

phase before disconnecting from the bus, assuming it was given the disconnect

0

privilege. This value is expressed in increments of data sectors (that is, a value of

Size

 

1 indicates 512 bytes, a value of 2 indicates 1024 bytes). The default value of 0 in-

 

 

 

 

dicates that there is no limit on the amount of data transferred per connection. This

 

 

field is reserved for the SCSI-1/CCS operating mode.
