Power Management Commands

12.5.2
The Check Power Mode command allows a host to determine if a device is currently in, going to or
leaving standby mode.
The Idle and Idle Immediate commands move a device to idle mode immediately from the active or
standby modes. The idle command also sets the standby timer count and starts the standby timer.
The sleep command moves a device to sleep mode. The device's interface becomes inactive at the
completion of the sleep command. A reset is required to move a device out of sleep mode. When a
device exits sleep mode it will enter standby mode.
The Standby and Standby Immediate commands move a device to standby mode immediately from
the active or idle modes. The standby command also sets the standby timer count.

Ready(RDY) is not a power condition. A device may post ready at the interface even though the
media may not be accessible.
7K200 SATA OEM Specification
The lowest power consumption when the device is powered on occurs in Sleep Mode.
When in sleep mode, the device requires a reset to be activated.
The device interface is capable of accepting commands, but as the media may not
immediately accessible, there is a delay while waiting for the spindle to reach
operating speed.
Refer to the section of Adaptive Battery Life Extender Feature.
The device is in execution of a command or accessing the disk media with read
look-ahead function or write cache function.
