    ST9655 Family Product Manual, Rev. A 3.3.2 Set Features command This command controls the implementation of various drive features. When the drive receives this command, it sets BSY, checks the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the register does not represent a feature supported by the drive, the command is aborted.
  • Page 35: Rest/Resume Commands

    ST9655 Family Product Manual, Rev. A 3.3.3 Rest/Resume commands Some host systems reduce overall power consumption by temporarily removing power from the disc drive. The Rest/Resume process allows drive-state information to be saved to disc before powering down the drive. After power is restored, the drive-state information is retrieved and used to return the drive to its prerest condition.
