This sentence is in section 6.7.4.4 (COMWAKE) of SATA 1.0a: "The device may hold the interface inactive no more then 228.3ns (175ns + 2 Gen1 dwords) at the end of a COMWAKE to prevent susceptibility to crosstalk." The same sentence in ata7v3r3c 14.5.6 (Out of band signaling) is: "The host or device shall hold the interface inactive no more than the maximum COMWAKE detector off threshold + 2 Gen1 dwords (approximately 228.3ns) at the end of a COMWAKE to prevent susceptibility to crosstalk." This rule should only apply to the device, not the host. The idle time after the host sends COMWAKE includes all the time for the device to run its calibration and send COMWAKE, which is a lot longer than 228.3 ns (I don't think there is any time limit). -- Rob Elliott, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hewlett-Packard Industry Standard Server Storage Advanced Technology https://ecardfile.com/id/RobElliott
