Not TalkingLikeWindows is by definition problematic ...
 
I hear Windows buffers all the data of each command and never exceeds 64KiB per 
command ...
 
But I too would like to understand where/how the T13 spec requires a drive to tolerate 
an indefinite number of arbitrarily placed STOP's.

        Hi,
        
        I have a question regarding UDMA protocol.
        
        When a host terminates a UDMA transfer in progress by asserting
        STOP, does the IDE drive treat that as termination of command
        or does it consider that as a termination of that dma cycle?
        
        In other words after STOP_ assertion will the drive assert a new
        DMARQ? Or will it assume an error and update the status register
        with the appropriate value.
        
        I will appreciate it, if somebody could point out where in the specification
        this scenario is covered.
        
        Thanks,
        
        Steve
