SET MAX ADDRESS has the following statement:

 

“A successful READ NATIVE MAX ADDRESS command shall immediately precede a SET MAX ADDRESS command.” 

 

This places a requirement on the host and does not actually describe the issue.

 

This is my proposed resolution:

 

“If the SET MAX ADDRESS command is not preceded by a successful READ NATIVE MAX ADDRESS command, the drive may abort the SET MAX ADDRESS command or execute one of the following commands: SET MAX SET PASSWORD, SET MAX LOCK, SET MAX UNLOCK, SET MAX FREEZE LOCK.”

 

The real outcome of this command when it is not preceded by a READ NATIVE MAX depends on the Feature field which is marked N/A…
