| If the number of blocks is set to zero, the device shall retain its current capacity if the | |
| block size has not changed. If the number of blocks is set to zero and the block size has | |
| changed, the device shall be set to its maximum capacity when the new block size takes | |
| effect. | |
| If the number of blocks is greater than zero and less than or equal to its maximum ca- | |
| pacity, the device shall be set to that number of blocks. If the block size has not changed, | |
| the device shall not become format corrupted. This capacity setting shall be retained | |
Number of Blocks | through power cycles, hard resets, logical unit resets and I_T nexus losses: | |
If the number of blocks field is set to a value greater than the maximum capacity of the | ||
| ||
| device and less than FFFF FFFFh, then the command is terminated with a CHECK | |
| CONDITION status. The sense key is set to ILLEGAL REQUEST. The device shall re- | |
| tain its previous block descriptor settings; or | |
| If the number of blocks is set to FFFF FFFFh, the device shall be set to its maximum | |
| capacity. If the block size has not changed, the device shall not become format corrupt- | |
| ed. This capacity setting shall be retained through power cycles, hard resets, logical unit | |
| resets, and I_T nexus losses. | |
Block Length | This field specifies the length, in bytes, of each logical sector. | |
