Drive Speed Page

2.9.8Drive Speed Page

The speed field provides a means for the initiator to set and retrieve the spindle speed when accessing data areas. The speed field values are listed in Table 2-9-8A on the opposite page.

The speed setting is only applicable when reading data areas. The target will automatically switch to normal speed when playing audio tracks and will switch back to the speed setting when accessing data.
