To obtain the Supported Diagnostics Pages list, the initiator must:

1.Send a Supported Diagnostics Page to the drive with a SEND DIAGNOSTICS command (the Page Length in the Supported Diagnostics page must be 0).

2.Send a RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command to the drive. The listing of Supported Diagnostic Pages is returned by the drive.

5.27.2Translate Address Page (40h)

The Translate Address Page allows the initiator to translate a logical sector address, physical address, or physical bytes for an index address into any one of the other formats. The address to be translated is passed to the drive with the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command, and the results are returned to the initiator by the RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command.

Table 5-153shows the format of the Translate Address Page that is returned in response to a RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command, and Table 5-154contains a description of the data fields. Multiple translated addresses are returned if the logical sector size is greater than 512 bytes (more than one physical data sector).
