*2) Advanced Power Management (APM)
The host writes the Sector Count register with the desired power management
level and executes this command with the Features register X'05', and then
Advanced Power Management is enabled.
The drive automatically shifts to power saving mode up to the specified APM
level when the drive does not receive any commands for a specific time. The
sequence in which the power management level shifts is from Active Idle to Low
Power Idle to Standby. The Mode-2 level requires the longest shifting time,
depending on the APM level settings. The settings of the APM level revert to their
default values (Mode-1) when power-on or a hardware reset occurs for the drive
Mode 0 Active Idle → Low Power Idle
Mode 1 Active Idle → Low Power Idle
Mode 2 Active Idle → Low Power Idle → Standby
