Hi All,
As I read this specification, I don't understand how
Test Unit Ready is converted to a Check Power Mode, or more importantly how the
Check Power Mode result value is reported back to the requestor.
Could someone please describe how the CPM "Sector Count" values of 00h (device
in standby), 80h (device in idle) and FFh (device in either Active or Idle mode)
are reported back in the context of a Test Unit Ready
command?
Thanks, MKE.

Subject: [t13] SAT revision 8a now available
SCSI / ATA Translation (SAT) revision 8a (sat-r08a.pdf) is now available on http://www.t10.org/drafts.htm and http://www.t10.org/new.htm.
The direct link is http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/drafts/sat/sat-r08a.pdf.
SAT revision 8a incorporates 963 letter ballot comment resolutions identified with status "Completed" as documented in 06-121r2, "SAT revision 8 letter ballot comment resolution as of SATr08" (http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-121r2.pdf).
Two proposals listed below incorporate resolutions to most of the remanining letter ballot comments:
- 06-216r1 SAT - Block Mapping Issues http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-216r1.pdf
- 06-291r1 SAT- ATA PASS-THROUGH additional sense code and other clarifications http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-291r1.pdf
There are some 70
letter ballot comments marked with the term "DISCUSS" to be addressed in the
July SAT WG that are neither incorporated into the latest draft nor in the two
propoposals listed above. Those remaining LB comments relate to the TEST UNIT
READY command translation, the READ/WRITE BUFFER commands, the REQUEST SENSE
command, the SEND DIAGNOSTIC self-test function, START STOP UNIT (SLEEP, vs
STANDBY, vs STANDBY IMMEDIATE), and a handful of scattered comments that are
mostly editorial.
