|
|
|
Logical Block Ad- |
| This field specifies the first logical block of the corresponding WRITE (10) COMMAND. This |
| allows a SEEK to begin immediately. The LBA of the following WRITE (10) command must be | |
dress |
| |
| the same as the LBA of the Write SKIP MASK command, | |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| This field indicated the length in bytes of the skip mask. The mask is up to 64 bytes, giving a data |
|
| address capability of 256K. The mask consists of a sequence of bits where a "1" bit is for the blocks |
Skip Mask Length |
| of data to be transferred and a "0" for the blocks of data that are to be skipped. The first "1" bit of |
| the mask corresponds to the first LBA to be transferred. Any unused bits at the end of the last byte | |
|
| |
|
| in the mask must be set to 0. The mask is transferred in the |
|
| command. |
|
|
|
|
| This field must be equal to the transfer length in the linked WRITE (10) command. The transfer |
Transfer Length |
| length field must be equal to the number "1" bits in the skip mask. If a WRITE (10) is used with |
|
| 0 as the transfer length, a transfer length of 256 data blocks is implied. |
