ATA COMMAND BLOCK AND SET DESCRIPTION

SSD-HXXX(I)-3500 DATA SHEET

Idle — 97h, E3h

When issued by the host, the device’s internal controller sets the BSY bit, enters the Idle mode, clears the BSY bit, and generates an interrupt. If the sector count is non-zero, it is interpreted as a timer count with each count being 5ms, and the automatic power-down mode is enabled. If the sector count is zero, the automatic power-down mode is disabled.
