This page is used to report the top address and final address of each zone.
If the zone number + 1 of the notching zone is set in the "Active notch" field and this
parameter is issued, the starting and ending address of the specified zone can be referred to by
the MODE SENSE command.
Also, if Page 3 and Page 3F are specified by the MODE SENSE command, the parameters
below the zone specified in the notch page can be referred to.

•
